LORA(SE)
LORA is a vocal improvisation group based in Malmö, Sweden. Ronja Rose Andersson, Olga Denward and Lydia Cronberg come together to make music inspired by folk singing and put it in a contemporary improvisational context. The group uses elements of jazz, pop, and choral music to develop their own arrangements and compositions.

The quartet places emphasis on free vocal improvisation and the state of liberation this music requires of the performers. Together they create a musical experience that cannot be replicated outside of the present time. They intertwine their unique voices and personal narratives, creating a captivating and novel musical experience for their audience.
