"Traditional" is not an individual artist or band but instead refers to a category of music that comprises works that are often part of the public domain, with no clear individual authorship. The songs and pieces under the "Traditional" umbrella typically encompass folk songs, classical pieces, chants, and carols that have been passed down through generations, often adapted and interpreted by various artists over time.

The recent releases attributed to Traditional showcase a diverse array of cultural and regional music heritage from around the world. From the devotional tones of "Ram Aayenge," reflecting the spiritual music traditions of India, to the festive cheer of "Merry Christmas (Vintage Songs and Carols, chapter I)," which brings together classic holiday songs, these works tap into the rich tapestry of global musical customs. "Traditional" embodies the essence of time-honored melodies and the enduring nature of music as a universal language. Whether reimagined through different arrangements, such as "Deilig er jorden" arranged by Terje Kvam or carried through the pure form, like the faithful rendition of "O Come All Ye Faithful," these pieces connect listeners to the enduring roots of musical expression.
