the weirder end of the Reykjavík
underground. JR

Reykjavík Midsummer Music
June 20th - 23rd - Harpa - 16,900 ISK
Reykjavík Midsummer
Music, the brainchild
of Icelandic virtuoso
pianist Víkingur
Ólafsson, will be held
for the seventh time
this June, and looks
to be as beautiful,
striking and thought-
provoking as ever. Held
in the magnificent
Harpa concert hall, the
festival deftly blends
old and new, with a
programme ranging
from Bach concertos
and overtures by
Prokofiev to works
by Mark Simpson
and Hans-Joachim
Roedelius, who is often
dubbed the father of
ambient music. Expect
the Grand Finale to be
particularly memorable,
with Víkingur joining
the renowned
Labèque Sisters in the
second half for an
extraordinary three
person performance of
Rachmaninoff’s ‘Valse
et Romance’, before
winding down with the
profound spirituality of
works by Pärt and Phillip
Glass. FR
