Stina Tordby - Sacred Melodies

Stina Tordby, founder of Sacred Melodies, is a Swedish composer, sound artist, and singer devoted to creating transformative musical experiences. Her work blends contemporary classical composition with ethereal vocal harmonies and immersive Swedish soundscapes, guiding listeners into states of deep presence and inner stillness. Sacred Melodies is her online library of sacred music, recorded in the Swedish countryside and inspired by the spiritual and sonic traditions of the North. It is a space for sound rituals, vocal ceremonies, and intentional compositions — all rooted in the belief that music can be a portal to healing, remembrance, and connection. Drawing from her Nordic roots and a lifelong exploration of the spiritual dimensions of sound, Stina’s music is both grounding and transcendent. As a composer, her works are often performed by choirs and ensembles, weaving together ancient resonance and modern minimalism to create sonic rituals that open the heart and quiet the mind. Her offerings on Insight Timer include selections from Sacred Melodies' ceremonies, shaped by the northern landscape, ancestral memory, and the elemental forces of her homeland — designed to support meditation, contemplation, and emotional release. Whether experienced in a concert hall or through headphones in solitude, Stina’s music serves as a portal to the sacred — echoing the silence of Swedish forests, the rhythm of northern waters, and the deep remembering of the soul.
