Faroese and Icelandic chiefs meet.

The Faroes chief Tróndur í Gøtu and the Icelandic chief Egill Skallagrímsson meet in the Nordic House in Tórshavn on Sunday Nov. 13. at 19.30.

We are talking about two music pieces written by the famous English composer Gavin Bryars.  One of the pieces is inspired by the history of the Faroese Trand of Gøtu and the other piece is inspired by the Icelandic Egill Skallagríms. Both men were powerful men, having a great impact on their country.
The music is written for orchestra, choir and soloist. Eivør will sing the sopran and Faroese bass soloist Rúni Brattaberg sings the bass solo. The Faroese orchestra Aldubáran is playing and the choir Eystanljóð, coming from Tróndur´s village, is singing.

Gavin Bryars is conducting both pieces at the Nordic House on Sunday night.

The music is contemporary/classical, well sounding and atmospheric.
