Description

We’re thrilled to announce the physical release of Björk orkestral - with the Hamrahlíð choir - part of the concert series that took place at Harpa Concert Hall in Reykjavik in 2021. The 24 October show featured the 50-person Hamrahlíð Choir conducted by Þorgerður Ingólfsdóttir and musician Bergur Þórisson on organ and featured songs primarily from Björk's album Medúlla.

These concerts were organised to raise money and awareness for Kvennaathvarfid - a charity that supports women and immigrants of different origin within Iceland.

The Hamrahlíð Choir
The Hamrahlíð Choir has been at the forefront of Icelandic musical life for more than four decades. Its members are former students at Hamrahlíð College in Reykjavík, where Þorgerður Ingólfsdóttir formed a choir in 1967 and was its conductor until 2017.

The Hamrahlíð Choir, which is made up of graduates of the college choir, has released many widely praised CD's and has frequently performed with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra. Throughout its history, the choir has collaborated closely with Icelandic composers, and over 100 works have been composed especially for the choir.

The Hamrahlíð Choir has travelled to 26 countries and has performed at many of the world’s leading choral festivals to great acclaim, including festivals in Europe, North America, and Asia.
The Hamrahlíð Choir began its collaboration with Björk in 2017, singing on her CD Utopia. The collaboration continued with Cornucopia concerts in New York City and Europe in 2019.
