In mid-April, 2011, Ola spent 3 days on the Central WashIngton University Campus for a project In which he joIned the choir In recordIng 3 of his compositions. On this video, Gjeilo adds an improvised accompaniment (In a one-take rendition) to his composition "Northern Lights"-- which is published as an unaccompanied piece. Because of his view that improvisIng is a wonderful snapshot of artists "at that moment", the project was entitled "In the Moment".
the other composition to which he created an improvised accompaniment was "Ubi Caritas". He also accompanied the choir on "the Ground", which Includes CWU's resident faculty quartet -- the Kairos StrIng Quartet.
