  Montagna con Forza first part of an upcoming quatrology of movies is a unique presentation that combines classical music fiction drama and nature. Around a beautiful lake in the midst of the untouched and dramatic landscape of Northern Norway we follow a wooden boat's venture across the lake. In the course of its journey we will absorb the vast array of temperate sensations and beautiful harmonies from this unique landscape. The brutality and mercilessness of life are central elements as the story unfolds into what can be seen as nature's own death mass. The shots are harmonious to the original compositions of Fred Jonny Berg (b.1973). Fred Jonny Berg's music reaches into your heart and soul and it presents you with many surprises. The music is fascinating - that is what is essential to me. It creates reactions and is appealing. I know that an increasing number will become aware of this special and talented composer. I hope that more orchestras will perform his music. says conductor Ari Rasilainen about Berg's work.
