'Winter Stories' is a deeply evocative collection of seasonal soundscapes infused with equal parts atmospheric beauty and reflective contemplation. Produced by Jacob Karlzon & Lars Nilsson and mixed in Dolby Atmos at Sweden's renowned Studio Nilento, 'Winter Stories' sees Karlzon masterfully conjuring the stark chill of Scandinavian winter via only his imagination and the Steinway D grand piano, his resolute naturalist approach and striking dynamic range brilliantly capturing an emotional time of year fraught with isolation, meditation, and melancholy. The album showcases his renditions of songs both associated with winter and the holiday season - including 'Silent Night' and Bulgaria's 'Bel Veter Due' - as well as music that evokes similar sensations, with highlights including Karlzon's original composition, 'Winterballad', the traditional English carol, 'The First Noël', and Taylor Swift's pensive ballad, 'Evermore'.
