Description

"ARCTIC" is a concept album by Norwegian rising star, violinist Eldbjørg Hemsing, and the Arctic Philharmonic Orchestra. It is filled with captivating melodies and impressive orchestral soundscapes that build before your ears like a breathtaking landscape as you follow nature through the Arctic's seasons and habitats. "ARCTIC" is an audio-visual journey into the Arctic region, celebrating the fragile and largely unknown beauty of an ecosystem threatened by climate change at an unparalleled speed. "ARCTIC" was recorded in the city of Bodø, in the Norwegian Arctic Circle, with the Arctic Philharmonic Orchestra. The album is produced by Grammy and BAFTA award-winning British producer Jonathan Allen (Sheku Kanneh-Mason, Lisa Batiashvili, Andrea Bocelli). The music supervisor is British composer and conductor Ben Palmer (Max Richter, John Williams). Jacob Shea wrote "The Arctic Suite" and Russell Emanuel is the music producer for Bleeding Fingers Music. Bleeding Fingers is a Los Angeles-based scoring studio and a joint venture between Sony Publishing and Hans Zimmer. This is the first long-form piece of music the company has written exclusively for a music production and concerts.
