Composer
and producer Mika Pohjola, who grew up
in Finland, studied in Sweden and works for the Norwegian
Seamen’s Church in New York, has united Scandinavian
values on his new Christmas CD, Scandinavian Yuletide Voices.
“The joy of singing and preparing for Christmas is
a common feature in Scandinavia,” Pohjola says. “Additionally,
Santa really lives in Scandinavia, he has residencies in
all five countries.”
The
Scandinavian Yuletide Voices CD contains new grooving
and colorful arrangements of well-known Scandinavian Christmas
songs. The CD also contains songs in English and an idyllic
Christmas video, directed by Minna Gröndahl. The video
takes place partly in New York City.
This
joint Scandinavian concert is made possible through
a generous support by the Consulate General offices of Scandinavia,
the Finnish Tourist Board and Finlandia Foundation, New
York metropolitan chapter.
