His novel, The Lost Musicians, takes place in the tiny island country of the Faroes at the beginning of the 20th century. It is a microcosm of the world, the stuggle to survive poverty, the struggle against the tyranny of religion and the struggle to produce music and art. It is about the relationships that foster deep feelings and deeper love. Apart from the family, the audience usually consisted of the music-makers’ friends and acquaintances, who came and went as it suited them: Ole Brandy, the one-legged sail maker Olivarius, Pontus the Rose, Lindenskov the dancing master, occasionally Janniksen the blacksmith and Mac Bett the decorator, and on special occasions Count Oldendorp and Judge Pommerencke, both of whom were great music lovers. Heinesen spent most of his life in the Faroe Islands and, despite being little known here, was considered for the Nobel Prize. The Lost Musicians concerns a small group who resist the religious ban on music in the Faroes at the turn of the last century. Based loosely on real events, it blossoms in Heinesen's hands into a major work.
