Running time This concert will last approximately 2 hours.

Epic landscapes and crossing musical boundaries in Iceland.

“I think pretty much every classical musician I’ve met [in Iceland] plays in a rock band of some kind too,” writes Guy Damann. Musicians in Iceland certainly don’t have much time for the boundaries between classical music and other genres - from soundtracks to pop to heavy metal. Come and hear how that works in this fantastic programme of modern Icelandic music, including works by musicians from Sigur Rós and composer of The Joker and Tár soundtracks Hildur Guðnadóttir.
