Leland Ko came on my radar when he was one of four gifted young cellists selected by Yo-Yo Ma to participate in a program called Music-Art-Life in 2023. 

It was, for me, a chance to luxuriate in curiosity. I wondered: Did their knowledge, skill, and feel for the music mean their curiosity about it was qualitatively different than my own? If so, how?

Björk describes Jóga as a tribute to “celestial mechanics” and the vastness of the universe. Through her enchanting lyrics and ethereal melodies, she expresses her admiration for the primal forces of nature and how they mirror human emotions and experiences.

The lyrics evoke themes of freedom, self-discovery, and finding solace in difficult times. As the song progresses, Björk’s delicate vocals soar over a lush and dynamic arrangement, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. It’s as if she invites the listener to embark on a transformative journey, urging them to embrace their vulnerabilities, overcome challenges, and embrace the beauty of life.

I've always been enthralled with Björk. I decided to create an upbeat electronic string-rich cover of her classic song Jóga, with volcanic Icelandic beats and featuring a mini string ensemble (layers and layers of strings). Björk's vocals are so iconic, so I took my time to figure out the deep emotion behind her lyrics and create an icy emblematic version of my own.
