Osushi is a unique
rest aurant in Iceland.
The met hod of dining involves
snatching small plates from
a conveyor belt. Pricing is
distinguished by the color
and pattern of the plate –
most range between
230 - 440 ISK.
Everything off the con vey or
belt is tasty and if you don´t
really fancy sushi, you can
instead choose for ex ample
teriyaki chicken, noodle
salad, tempura and desserts.
The vibe in Osushi is friendly
and relaxed. The restaurant is
located almost next door to
Althingi (the parliament) which
is in the heart of the city.

Twee-pop artist Sin Fang, aka the “Icelandic Beck,” will be performing several of
his hits, including songs from his third solo album ‘Flowers’ (which totally won
Grapevine’s 2013 Album of the Year award). It is filled with sweeping, blithe and
feel-good orchestra/techno resonance—truly a goldmine of modern indie-pop.
Joining him are Samaris, whose relaxed indietronica mixes minimalist syncopated
beats with an intricate and emotional vocal delivery, as can be heard on tracks
such as ‘Viltu Vitrast’. Ojba Rasta’s Arnljótur will be opening the event, providing
infective and unflustered accompaniment to an artistically diverse evening. LH

Starting with the fluttering melodic drones present in John Adams’ gorgeous, euphoric Hallelujah
Junction, The Midsummer Music Festival expresses its commitment to pieces pushing the technical
limits of the piano, with performances by Davíð Þór Jónsson, Víkingur Heiðar Ólafsson and Kathryn
Stott. The event closes with the Goldberg Variations, a triumph in composition which demonstrates
the dynamics of Bach’s work. Arm-stretching legato accompanies seemingly endless breaks that
endow the Goldberg Variations with a resonant, emotional quality that makes this event absolutely
unmissable. LH
