Birna, Wardruna’s sixth album, channels the heartbeat of the bear—around nine beats per minute—as a symbol of nature’s cyclical rhythms. Composer Einar Selvik blends ancient instruments and wisdom with modern soundscapes and natural recordings to explore our deep connection to nature. The album reflects Selvik’s philosophy of renewing old roots while sowing new seeds, offering profound insights into our place within the natural world.
