Väsen, Gudrun Walther & Jürgen Treyz - Polonaise Voyage (2026) [Hi-Res]

Väsen, Gudrun Walther & Jürgen Treyz - Polonaise Voyage (2026) [Hi-Res]
The Polonaise Voyage musical project brings together the legendary Swedish folk duo VÄSEN (nyckelharpa player Olov Johansson and violist/cellist Mikael Marin) with German musicians Gudrun Walther (violin, viola, vocals) and Jürgen Treyz (guitar, waldzither). Launched in August 2023 with support from the Goethe-Institut's Culture Moves Europe program, the collaboration explores the shared roots of Scandinavian and German folk music traditions.

At the core of the project is the historic evolution of the polonaise and polska—a dance and melodic form that spread across Europe in the late 16th century and became a defining element of Swedish traditional music. Drawing from historic manuscripts in the Stockholm Music Archive and various German sources, the ensemble weaves centuries-old minuets, polskas, and songs together with original compositions. Featuring an unusual string quartet arrangement centered on the nyckelharpa (recognized as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage), violoncello da spalla, and the regional German waldzither, Polonaise Voyage bridges historic heritage with contemporary acoustic folk innovation.
