Review by Uğur Arıcı

The Helsinki University Choir's latest album, YL Live In California, is a testament to the group's exceptional musicianship and artistry. Recorded during their tour of the United States, the album captures the energy and passion of their live performances.

The choir's impeccable vocal technique and harmonies are on full display throughout the album, particularly in their renditions of traditional Finnish songs such as "Karjalan Kunnailla" and "Terve Kuu." Their ability to convey emotion through their singing is particularly evident in their moving performance of "Kung Liljekonvalje," a Swedish folk song.

The choir's versatility is also showcased in their interpretation of contemporary pieces such as "Lux Aurumque" by Eric Whitacre and "Ain't No Grave" by Paul Caldwell and Sean Ivory. Their soaring vocals and dynamic range create a powerful and captivating sound that is truly awe-inspiring.
