about

Julia Gjertsen is a musician and composer who was born in Russia but grew up in the northern part of Norway. She early found ways to express herself through music, strongly inspired by the arctic nature and triggered by particular life events. She later moved to Oslo where she continued her study in music and sound design and has composed music for contemporary dancers and other commissioned productions. Her style has since been evolving with thoughtfully arranged compositions and sound images. Her full-length album Fragile (2019) was released on Moderna Records and reflects the time between the experienced and learned past, giving a fragile definition to her surroundings through piano compositions. She has been involved in several collaborative releases, such as Distant Fields (2020) with Nico Rosenberg.

"This track is a set of piano layers led by a main piano theme where different parts form a mental dance in circles. "Runddans" is a Norwegian word for round dancing, but this term is also used to describe a never ending process of something that hardly reaches any resolution, for example an endless bureaucracy or psychological process. This piano piece felt like a dance to me and the title described very well what I was experiencing at the time."
