Title: For Now I Am Winter Artist: Arnalds, Olafur Label: Umg Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 028948101504 Genre: Classical Artists
2013 release from the Icelandic composer. On this album, composer Nico Muhly provided orchestral arrangements, and for the first time Arnold's introduces vocals to his sound world. Icelandic singer Arnor Dan can be heard on four tracks. The concept of evolution and seasonal change is one which has been ever-present in his music. Here it continues both musically and conceptually - a personal evolution as a composer and, for the first time, as a songwriter. Purveying a neo-classical style with an array of influences which range from Electronica to minimalism, Arnold's is an artist who draws from a variety of sources whilst maintaining his own unique sound.
