The Miracle Series – A Great Success!

Our series of French, Italian and Spanish miracles has been extremely popular with the critics and the general public. The combination of popular musical gems and harmonious wines has proved to a successful concept, not least as a very attractive gift.

The fourth record in Aage Kvalbein's and KKV's "miracle series" embraces the music and wines of North and South America, and as its three predecessors, this CD is based on the relationship between music, wine, landscape, the soil and the environment. 

"Miracles from the New World" presents music composed on the American continents, from Argentina, Chile, Brazil and California. Each of the selected pieces of music is combined with a wine that has a corresponding ambience. 

In addition to Aage Kvalbein on cello you will hear these musicians: Jørn Fossheim on piano, Mauricio Vicencio (Ecuador) on flutes, guitar and charrango and Carlos Corrales (Argentina) on bandoneon. 

The music was recorded in Maipo in Chile in January this year. Erik Hillestad, producer and Alf Christian Hvidsteen sound.
