About the program
The works on the concert´s repertoire do all in one way or another refer to Iceland´s nature, which is full of contrasts, is both magnificent and fragile. At the same time, all the works have religious connections. The concert will feature the premiere of a piece by Bára Grímsdóttir called Flóra. It is a reference to the Icelandic flora where most of the plants are low-growing but extremely colorful, delicate and beautiful, even though many of them live in barren conditions. The names of the chapters of the work are flowers that remind of or refer to scriptures and religious legends and together they weave a wreath about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Birting
Arngerður María Árnadóttir (*1975)
The work Birting was written for Guðný Einarsdóttir in 2022. The word “Birting” can mean different things but in Icelandic the root of the word is “birta” which means light. For me the work reminds me of the sunrise and the dance of the sun rays on the surface of the water.
