Another notable track is "Intermezzo: Jag, sliten av strid," which showcases the struggles of Prince Erik and Marina. The music here paints a picture of conflict and resilience. Other significant moments from this work include "Act I Scene 4: Ensam, Ensam med harda vindar" and the powerful "Coda: Ingen okand gud skyddar oss." Each piece contributes to the larger narrative, inviting listeners into the story. Brattaberg’s work brings these operatic elements to life, engaging audiences with a unique take on the classic material.

One notable collaboration for Rúni Brattaberg is in the performance of “Riddaren och draken (The Knight and the Dragon), Op. 70: Act I Scene 1: Mot kvallen hors i granderna.” This piece features contributions from soprano Helena Juntunen and the Turku Philharmonic Orchestra.
