Flowers of the Forest is a musical co-creation by the Norwegian musician Sigmund Vatvedt and Estonian musical artist Rutti Atitasha.
Their music bridges the ancient and modern, inspired by folklore and traditions spanning the north, south, east and west. The songs express the beauty of nature and the creative Life Force. At its core, the music embodies a deep spiritual calling which comes to life through the melodies, harmonies and sounds.
Sigmund and Rutt were brought together in 2011 by a synchronistic orchestration of events and have ever since journeyed side by side, co-creating the expression through sound and music as Flowers of the Forest. Their music has been described as medicine, contributing to the ceremonial healing atmosphere of sound.
Their upcoming debut album “The Calling” is the result of many years of searching for the Great Spirit. It is an invitation to the listener to undergo the journey of self exploration, transcendence, inner peace and connection to nature.
