Pär Lindh´s Nobel Prize connections!
Pär Lindh has had two important connections with Nobel prize winner in litterature over the years. The present winner of the Nobel prize in litterature Tomas Tranströmer is Pär´s favorite poet in the modern era of poetry. Some twentyfive years ago Tomas Tranströmer and Pär Lindh gave a recital together in the Augeli museum in Swedish town of Sala. Mr Tranströmer read his poetry and Mr Lindh performed his music and also played classical music of the great masters on a Bechstein grand piano. Says Pär: ¨It was a wounderful evening filled with sublime poetry and to perform music together with such a great poet was just a fantastic experience. That night I discovered Mr Tranströmers poetry and have been waiting for his Nobel prize ever since. So it was with tears in my eyes I heard the great news last week¨. In 1982 Pär Lindh gave a helping hand in a dangerous smuggling operation so that Mr Jaroslav Seiferts would two years later be awarded Nobel Prize in Litterature 1984.
