Yggdrasil is a Nordic music ensemble based in the Faroe Islands.
The band was formed in 1981 by the composer and pianist Kristian Blak, who has written most of the material for the group.
The compositions draw ideas and themes from ethnic material from the North Atlantic region, such as Faroese ballads, hymns and rhymes, Inuit songs or Shetland folk music.
Improvisation takes a large part in the interpretation and ranges from free and ethno-jazz to classical and world music.
