Hit: 5 Stars
I first heard the beautiful soft voice of Sissel while I was trying to write a short story in a retro coffee bar in Cephallonia. The music matched perfectly with the setting and immediately I called the waiter over to ask whether I was listening to a radio station or a CD. He showed me the album cover and instantly I became a fan of Sissel.
Sissel's full name is Sissel Kyrkjebo (the final 'o' is written with a slanted line through it and pronounced like the 'o' with umlaut in German or Swedish). She comes from Bergen, Norway and although she sings mainly in English, she sometimes sings in her native Norwegian as well as Latin and has even sung in Irish on one particular album.
This collection begins impressively with the haunting, dreamy song 'Weightless'. The moment I heard this I felt at peace - an experience that was at once both exciting yet soothing. Even though I also enjoyed all the other songs too, it was this first song that remained with me. The melody and Sessil's hushed, clear voice sounded somewhat reminiscent of a soft Celtic lullaby, yet with a more contemporary musical arrangement. Sometimes, perhaps the instrumentation is a little too modern and electronic and not as compatible with her voice as the orchestration of, let's say, Irish folk ballads would be.This I feel would enhance her sound as the quality of her voice and music is comparable with that of Enya. Perhaps an even greater similarity could be made between the lovely pure voice heard in the group Secret Garden (also from Norway!), in particular in their memorable song 'Nocturne' (the greatest piece ever to have won the Eurovision song contest - in 1995 - this album is alas unavailable yet the video clip can be seen on Youtube). However, despite positive comparisons, Sissel is unique and really has her own individual style.
I also appreciate her consistency. The other songs on the collection are also melodic and of the same quality. The melodies are simple yet so well constructed and, even after a first hearing they stay in your mind and soul long afterwards. This is music to relax, to reflect, to dream and to wander in your thoughts.
