Notes

Edition of 500 copies housed in reverse board jackets with printed gloss inner sleeve.

First in a series of two releases unveiling the previously unissued soundtracks made for the films of Ursula Reuter Christiansen by her partner and collaborator Henning Christiansen. Assembled from the original master tapes sourced from the Henning Christiansen Archive by Mark Harwood.

The Executioner (Skarpretteren) is Ursula’s first film from 1971 and is now considered one of the most important works of early Danish feminist art. This release also features nature sounds recorded for the film on the island of Moen.
