Warm and Cozy Times and Spaces Limited Deluxe Edition of 2017 Work Including Christmas CarolsThe 2017 work composed and arranged for chorus and strings by Norwegian composer Ola Jaylo is now available in a limited deluxe edition. It includes new arrangements of familiar Christmas carols in familiar compositions that allow the listener to experience the feeling of "hygge." Hygge" is a Danish word meaning "warm, cozy time and space. Ola Jaylo is one of the most frequently performed composers in the choral world. An accomplished pianist, his own choral improvisations have become a trademark of his collaborations around the world. Although born in Norway, the greatest influence on the composer's unique sound world came from the United States, where he now resides. There he has developed a contemporary yet familiar style, thick harmonies and rich textures reminiscent of film music. Universal Music/IMS
