Norwegian singer-songwriter Susanna Wallumrød receive praise for her latest album, Meditations on Love.

Described as a ‘Norwegian singer’s fervid exploration of matters of the heart,’ Susanna’s album, Meditations on Love, has been awarded ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ by MOJO. The Crack Magazine, in particular, notes its genre-bending qualities, describing it as a ‘shimmering release that slips easy between alt-folk, pop, jazz, and more, with gently avant-garde rhythms pushed very much to the fore.’

Critics have also highlighted the album’s atmosphere, with Prog Magazine calling it ‘a compelling mix of melancholy and minimalism.’ UNCUT Magazine gives it a solid 7/10, observing how ‘Susanna provides surprising settings for her lovelorn ruminations.’

Norwegian media has celebrated the release as a triumph, with Nettavisen giving it a perfect score and proclaiming, “Med Meditations on Love forteller hun oss at hun er en artist i verdensklasse,” cementing her status as a world-class artist. Disharmoni echoes this, calling it “nok et bevis på at Susanna Wallumrød er en stor artist og kunstner”, while Musikkavisen Puls hails the album as a “Mesterverk om kjærligheten” (masterpiece on love).

Silent Radio praises the album’s dynamic range, noting that the “quality of the music, which runs the gamut from subtle to grandiose, is outstanding.” Similarly, The Arts Desk (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, Disc of the Day) marvels at how “her strength and purity of tone, bounce in turn of that instrumentation like someone having a good deal of fun with their talent and that of their collaborators”.

Record Collector, also awarding the album ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, stands alongside the other voices praising Susanna’s ability to convey emotion with an effortless blend of genres and moods.

Meditations on Love continues to draw attention for its introspective exploration of love. It is still available to buy here and on all streaming platforms.
