Contemporay Icelandic Choir music

Post by EmqU »

Hi,

I - and some colleague choir conductors - am aware of the fact that there is quite a lot happening in Iceland, the last decades, concerning contemporary choir music (as in the Baltic States). I 'm thinking of Jon Leifs, Jon Nordal, Thorkel Sveinbjornsson.
On the other hand, I have a singer in my choir who happens to go to Iceland in june. So I want to take the opportunity to ask her to by me some CD's and/or scores, that are not available here (i.e. Belgium).
Does anyone has some suggestions of which composer/work would be worth bringing along?

I did mail to mic.is, but I didn't got any answer untill now.

Greetings,
Martin

Yes, I don't remember how, by a stumbled into this spot recently (probably through one the forums here), but even there is no mention of any composer !!! You see my point ?

The web page says the song was recorded by Choir Lyran, so maybe contacting them can provide more information.
