The World

Finally today � Sweden also features in our Global Hit. The music is from a new album by �Taken By Trees.� That’s the artistic name of Swedish singer-songwriter Victoria Bergsman. Bergsman recorded the album in Pakistan. She went there even though the Swedish government advised her not to. But Bergsman really wanted to record with Sufi musicians. Here’s a quick sample from the album. It’s from a track titled �To Lose Someone.� Swedish artist �Taken By Trees.� Her new album is called �East of Eden.�
