Join Jonathan Mosen for a three-hour ABBA special, Mosen at the Museum
In September, while in the UK to attend the ABBA Voyage concert, I realised a long-held dream to visit the ABBA Museum in Stockholm, Sweden. As a blind person, what interested me most was the aural experience. Sporting my digital recorder, I was able to leave the museum with some extraordinary audio. I have compiled this into a three-hour documentary and celebration of ABBA, called Mosen at the Museum. All four band members talk about their early lives, how they met each other, when Benny and Anni-Frid fell in love and when Agnetha and Björn became a couple. You’ll hear them all discuss the accidental discovery of the distinctive ABBA sound, the formation of the group, Eurovision disappointment and triumph, their meteoric rise, song writing, live performing, marital tension, divorce and disbandment.
As well as hearing these candid and at times very moving recollections, you will hear plenty of ABBA’s greatest hits, and a few songs that are off the beaten path.
Whether you’re a diehard ABBA fan or you’re curious to learn more, I hope you enjoy Mosen at the Museum.
You can hear it today, Thursday, at 4 PM US Eastern time, 1 PM Pacific, 8 PM in the UK. It will be repeated on the ABBAversary of the release of the Voyage album, Saturday 5 November, at 11 AM Eastern.
