Cristiane Miranda and Leonardo Fleck are not from Uppsala nor from any other Swedish city but from Buenos Aires, Argentina. However, it's enough to listen to Uppsala Solemne's new EP to realise that they are well aware what "Scandinavian music" means.
Miranda is a classical musician so she has to be the one to provide the project with this amazing mood based on piano keys and violin strings (as in "Flor de inverno..." being one long classical composition from time to time disrupted with delicate folk-like vocals). In fact the whole album is like this and creates something that could be called folk-classical ambient that speaks to very deep levels of your soul. Sometimes, as in "Volta" it is more folkish, sometimes ("Green Shore") classical but the album still sounds like a well thought through and complete composition.
"Logo de Manhã" ("early in the morning") can be bought for 2 USD.
