This music makes me want to run to the beach in time to see the sun rise up out of the Atlantic Ocean, to stretch out my arms, to open my senses, to hear the cries of the sea birds and watch the fishes dart through transparent gray waves tinged with pink from the firey morning sun, to watch the Lighthouse with its beautiful Fresnel lamp still lit, still turning, a beacon reaching out in every direction to guide the sailor back home to his bouy. I pray the Lord grants me just one more day to experience the smell, and the taste, and the feel of the salt spray on my lips
Right now, my college's choir is supposed to be singing this, but amidst all the chaos, our plans for a concert are in limbo. However, I couldn't resist coming and listening, this song just brings me peace at this very stressful time and assures that things are and will be ok. Thank you Ola Gjeilo.
Things will be OK. I am near 70 and have never, ever seen change that has not produced good; that is if you believe in God. Be at peace, Jacob. I will pray for you.
I sang this song with my high school’s choir in my senior year. That was nearly five years ago now. It will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for writing such beautiful music that helps so many express their feelings and feel at peace
I downloaded this album just before a flight to London so that I would have music to hear. Needless to say listening to this for the first time while looking out of a plane window was one of the most cathartic moments of my life.
2 months ago, I visited a friend of mine and we were discussing places in the world we want to visite. My friend likes Italy and some area's down south a lot, while I prefer to go up north, the cold. Both Norway and Finland are on my bucketlist and Switzerland as well. When I got in the car, and turned on the radio this beautiful song started playing and it turned out the composer is Norwegian. If this isn't a sign from the universe, then I don't know what it is 🌟
Beautiful. The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. (Psalm 24:1) The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. (Psalm 95:5)
I discovered this composer on CLASSIC FM..... Wonderful.... Truely wonderful.... I suffer from Aspergers and I find this piece of music so comforting....
Oh! My sentiments exactly. It's bloody hard work wading through the wikipedia list of 21st Century Contemporary Classic composers. The dis-harmonius stabbing of piano, violin and whatever found objects might come to hand has become such a dreadful cliche. Time for a return to beautiful music - Thanks Ola indeed
As much as I agree with the beauty of this piece, us musicians should be lifting one another up and giving encouragement. I hate all the gatekeeping that occurs within the classical community. Music is for everyone, if it doesn't match your taste, there's no need to bash others who enjoy it. And especially not bashing the composers.
Have you ever heard something so beautiful that you can’t help but wonder that maybe there is a God who made us and gave us music. Music is a sure way to connect with God.
The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. (Psalm 24:1) The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. (Psalm 95:5) May God bless you today
My son had the opportunity to perform this wonderful piece with his high school Varsity choir (in Austin, TX) right before the pandemic hit the US. It was so inspirational to see the young musicians jump in to learn this amazing piece and then give their best performance to that point. This was the last piece they performed together. In person. Thank you, Ola, for all of the beautiful music you share with the world, but especially for this piece.
"Always night and day I hear lake water lapping in low sounds by the shore. when I stand on the roadway or on pavements grey I hear it in the deep hearts core"- so true- when I am away from Scotland thats how I feel- I want to go home
Just stumbled upon this composer - what a find! Love the Norwegian footage. It brought back wonderful memories of our Norwegian coastal voyage. The Norwegians we met on our trip were lovely people. My dad went to Norway a lot before WW2 and I inherited his love for Norway.
The Lake Isle of Innisfree BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree, And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made; Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee, And live alone in the bee-loud glade. And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings; There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow, And evening full of the linnet’s wings. I will arise and go now, for always night and day I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore; While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey, I hear it in the deep heart’s core.
It calls from that perfect summer of our youth, which we’re not sure whether we closed our eyes too soon and fell asleep on, or opened our eyes too soon and awoke from...
Ola Gjeilo, I found you pieces in 2018 autumn, from that day I can't stop listening to your works. Every day I am starting my job with headphones and your songs. Wonderful! You have amazing gift to touch peoples souls. Thank you
This is absolutely beautiful, it makes me feel the kindness and the strength of Mother Nature and hope for the future of human beings. I feel less alone by listening to this piece of Music, thank you.
This lovely music made my day really🌷🌷🌷 It takes away all the stress and anxiety💖So beautiful, peaceful, absolutely amazing✨ I very much appreciate for sharing this great music for us✨
How could music be so exquisite? This is an amazing piece of work that combines piano, guitar and voices so beautifully and uniquely. This is why I love Ola Gjelo's music so much.
Thank you Ola for composing such beautiful music I had the honor to perform the piece on tour with my college's choir and this piece as well as The Ground would always strike people to their soul's.
we performed this piece last night in a church whose acoustics transported. Ola, I can't wait to meet you in person. Your work is building my capacity to become the instrument. It's less like singing and more like channeling.
I'm singing one of his songs for my next choir concert and I can't wait. I love how beautiful his compositions are. One of the best choral composers out there.
Almost too much beauty to take in at once. Thank you so much. Exactly this time last year we took our family to Norway and watching this brings goosebumps and tears of nostalgia. Such escape from the sadness around our world. Many regards from Sydney, Aust - Dave
I somehow stumbled across Ola's music about two years ago and something happened when I listened to it. The amazing harmonies, the unique choral sounds melded (with piano, guitar etc) in a way I'd never heard...somehow it just got to me and nothing else seems to quite take my mind to a place of serenity as Ola's music does. I would call finding Ola's music transformational in my life...and I listen to an awful lot of music. Now please come to Sydney and do some composer led concerts!!
Hi Ian, I discovered Ola Gjeilo via WCLV, my local (Cleveland, OH) classical music station when I heard "Tundra" as I was driving to work. The first thing I did when I got home was to search for more compositions by Ola and I discovered a treasure trove of beautiful music that has brought me many hours of listening pleasure.
My thought too. While I think this is about as good as music can get on earth, I am convinced that this is a tiny tiny tiny very faint reflection of one drop out of the ocean of what actual heaven would be.
Finally, back to the great serenity of voices, choral music, piano as close to Classic New Age as I can remember, feel and hope to share such true Renaissance ! The simple and yet so glimmering touch of your work give us a piece of skies puzzle that were missing for so long ... From the bottom of my heart...obrigado, merci, thank you, viele danke. The warmest thougts from Portugal.
This is absolutely gorgeous, my whole being responded to the sublime sounds. There is so much beauty, so much love and God Source is ever present. Courage, dear heart
Just heard this for the first time on a shortwave radio station (of all things) where the atmospheric fading actually accentuated the ambience! A quick search brought me here - thanks very much for uploading.
Was treated to a live performance of this piece just this past weekend by the So. Oregon Repertory Singers... what breathtaking music. And I love this stunning footage with it!

I was lucky to be part of a choir that sing some of your composition. your music in more than music and more that dream it is like an energy flow from heart to heart and from earth to god

Keep it up my friend. Im a singer too and I feel the very same. Chaos is among us, may music stay as a safe line for us all to return to peace.

I hope you will be able to perform it. It's stunning.
I sang this song with my high school’s choir in my senior year. That was nearly five years ago now. It will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for writing such beautiful music that helps so many express their feelings and feel at peace
I'm singing it for my senior year concert in a week. I hope it goes well!
As a sophomore in high school I’m so glad that we get to sing this and I’m glad other people enjoy it as much as me
I'm singing it as a senior as well! We're using it as a festival piece
I downloaded this album just before a flight to London so that I would have music to hear. Needless to say listening to this for the first time while looking out of a plane window was one of the most cathartic moments of my life.
Super idea.! This will be perfect with my photos of Antarctica from December.
There's something special about classical music and liftoff. It's like the all senses experiencing the same exact thing.
What's the name of the album?
Vibes 🥰🎶

Very few songs make me feel like crying. This song, especially with this imagery, does that.

in the era of noise, you make music Ola. thanks is not enough.
robmonsoon well said... A masterpiece indeed.

I'm in tears..so moving
I love the Norwegian landscapes. Such a joy to watch along with the amazing music.
Questa musica mi porta in paradiso ❤
I’m finna perform this today y’all! Wish me luck buddies!
This made my soul weep.
The most beautiful thing I have ever heard. Thank you.

My only complaint is that the song doesn't go on for an hour. Pure Genius.
If someone could make an eternal loop of this work I would be happy
As a Psychotherapist I know this musical rendition would bring imminent peace to many of my patients.
Just stumbled upon this composer - what a find! Love the Norwegian footage. It brought back wonderful memories of our Norwegian coastal voyage. The Norwegians we met on our trip were lovely people. My dad went to Norway a lot before WW2 and I inherited his love for Norway.
In 20 years from now, I will come back and listen to the piece and keep moving and pushing through life no matter what happens it's going to be ok
These are the words I needed to read today. Thank you.
Yes. Thank you for your words. Whatever happens, it will be ok.
The Lake Isle of Innisfree
BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet’s wings.
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.
thank you
Thanks, the diction was not very clear in this song
The feeling of hearing the loch waves in a city we know this when we leave Scotland for any time
Thanks for sharing vthe poems text 👍😊
@@Hahaha00003 I think it was intentional.. like the choir was sort of a background to the guitar and piano
Music so clean and pure as Scandinavian nature...
It calls from that perfect summer of our youth, which we’re not sure whether we closed our eyes too soon and fell asleep on, or opened our eyes too soon and awoke from...
Ola Gjeilo, I found you pieces in 2018 autumn, from that day I can't stop listening to your works. Every day I am starting my job with headphones and your songs. Wonderful! You have amazing gift to touch peoples souls. Thank you
This sort of music elevates the human spirit. So uplifting, thank you Ola Gjeilo!

Still my lovest piece, so pure, so beautiful...
Mr. Ola Gjeilo, thank you for brightening my life with your emotionally rich and deep compositions. the world needs more Ola Gjeilo.
Norway!! I lived here for awhile and it's breathtakingly beautiful!
Moving. What a beautiful piece, marvelous photos. Truly wonderful!
Heralds the beginning of a new age in dynamic musical expression.
This is absolutely beautiful, it makes me feel the kindness and the strength of Mother Nature and hope for the future of human beings. I feel less alone by listening to this piece of Music, thank you.
Such a beautiful song about living in isolation in a valley thats so filled with bees that it’s considered “loud”
...dancing feels like flying... THANK YOU
this music made me cry. Excellent!
This lovely music made my day really🌷🌷🌷 It takes away all the stress and anxiety💖So beautiful, peaceful, absolutely amazing✨ I very much appreciate for sharing this great music for us✨
En momentos de ansiedad, qué bien hace esta música.Gracias. ❤️
How could music be so exquisite? This is an amazing piece of work that combines piano, guitar and voices so beautifully and uniquely. This is why I love Ola Gjelo's music so much.
+ string quartet
The only way to hear music more beautiful will be in heaven.
Yea. Every so often I hear a song that's just like....HOW.
How did you DO that??
This is one of those songs. So beautiful
Thank you Ola for composing such beautiful music I had the honor to perform the piece on tour with my college's choir and this piece as well as The Ground would always strike people to their soul's.
Just discovered Olas work and I am quite pleased.
we performed this piece last night in a church whose acoustics transported. Ola, I can't wait to meet you in person. Your work is building my capacity to become the instrument. It's less like singing and more like channeling.
One of the most luscious songs I have ever heard in my life! Would love to hear it live in a cathedral!!!!
Just bought a new headset. This is the sound quality tester.
This was by far one of my favorite pieces I have performed in a choir
Thank you Ola Gjeilo.
Beautiful Work!!! Thank you!!!!Sounds like the world is being created!!!
This is a treasure. Everything in this composition is a true treasure. Ola, you created a Masterpiece.
All of Her Music are Masterpieces in my book!! A Monet of Music 😁😁😁😁👍🏻👍🏻Exquisite 💫🙏🏻💫
I love this song. It was part of a paper for choir.
This is truly a masterpiece from both perspectives: music and video.
I'm singing one of his songs for my next choir concert and I can't wait. I love how beautiful his compositions are. One of the best choral composers out there.
how to make a stressful work week better...
I was head over heels in love by that first note at 0:35
Ola, you are a truly gifted composer. I feel honored that I get to listen to your music.
Almost too much beauty to take in at once. Thank you so much. Exactly this time last year we took our family to Norway and watching this brings goosebumps and tears of nostalgia. Such escape from the sadness around our world. Many regards from Sydney, Aust - Dave

You enhance, you beautify the world with your creations. Thank you Ola!!!!
Greetings from Miami. 🏖⛵
God is showing us pictures and giving us previews of heaven with music like this.
My thought too. While I think this is about as good as music can get on earth, I am convinced that this is a tiny tiny tiny very faint reflection of one drop out of the ocean of what actual heaven would be.
I am speechless, my cheeks full of tears. This is a truly masterpiece!
Just came here to get my daily fix.
what a wonderful world with Ola who makes life so beautiful
Absolutely Beautiful!
There are simply no words. Some things are so beautiful they defy description.
Thank you.
I have just been listing to this for the first time it blows you away never heard of Ola Gjeilo before will be buying his works on CD Anthony

Thank you very much for creating this heavenly composition
So nice, my heart singing with this music, so beautiful!

(based on the poem The Lake Isle of Innisfree by William Butler Yeats)
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.
I was lucky to be part of a choir that sing some of your composition. your music in more than music and more that dream it is like an energy flow from heart to heart and from earth to god
This work is so refreshing, a much spiritual uplift in the world of noise.
Singing this song in my choir at our next concert. I absolutely adore it.
Josiah Times so lucky 😍
This scenery is so gorgeous...
