So what did he choose to write? A mass for the dead. It is a powerful, tremendously moving experience to listen to it. Arve Tellefsen (violin) and Live Maria Roggen (vocals) play key roles, surrounded by strings and electronics forming a colourful and dynamic landscape around them. Øystein Moen and Kjetil Bjerkestrand play Minimoog Voyager, and on strings we hear the Trondheim soloists led by their concert master Tino Fjeldli. The work has seven movements, and the old mass texts are performed in Latin and English. Through his long career Kjetil Bjerkestrand has written music in countless genres, and has always been much-sought after for collaborations with artists and orchestras, in addition to releasing records under his own name (“Piano poems” KKV 2010).

The songs, accompanied by a large string and woodwind ensemble, have been arranged by Kjetil Bjerkestrand. All the musicians and singers in the choir are students in the Edward Said National Conservatory of Music (ESNCM), which has departments in four locations in the Palestine territories: Ramallah, Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Gaza. Recording of the instruments was mostly done in the ESNCM studio in Ramallah, which has a collaborative agreement with KKV. The choir and soloists were recorded in a modern studio in Gaza. The equipment in the studio was smuggled through tunnels from Egypt before they were closed and destroyed two years ago. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe album is released by KKV and produced by Erik Hillestad.
