简介
This recording is a lasting receptacle for a Christmas musical adventure that the choir Hymnodia and its conductor Eyþór Ingi have embarked upon over the past years. Together with the skills of Lára Sóley and Hjörleifur the group has engaged audiences with a semi-improvised performances, weaving an amorphous whole from seemingly diverse musical elements. Much of what you hear on this recording was a product of these pooled resources. Folk traditions are interweaved with contemporary styles, traditional material re-worked with bold new colours and textures. The cold, dark, turf cottage in the bleak landscape and the pot bubbling over with Christmas fare on the hearth. The cold without and the warmth within. Though happily few Christmases are spent in the privations of turf houses today, the memory of them is never far away. The old traditions fuse with the modern. The taste of the old and the promise of the new! The essence of a Hymnodia Christmas!
