Þorgrímur Jónsson – Nordic House Concert Series
20:00
The Nordic House / August 30th at 20:00
The double-bass player Þorgrímur Jónsson recently received two awards for the Icelandic Music prize in the jazz category for his album Constant Movement and his composition on that album. His brother Ólafur will be releasing his first album, Quinquaginta, this forthcoming August. The brothers now meet with a new quartet in the Nordic House and will perform music from their albums as well as new material written especially for this quartet. Joining them on stage will be Agnar Már Magnússon on piano, and Matthías M.D. Hemstock on drums.
Nordic House Concert Series is presented for the first time this summer! The concert series consist of the best of Icelandic jazz and folk music, with some Latin and Balkan influences, as well as one guest from Sweden. We promise you evenings of great music and excellent musicians, sharing with the guests moods ranging from the melancholic and gentle to the passionate and up-beat.
All concerts start at 20:00, on Wednesdays, from the 14th of June to the the 30th of August.
Ticket price is 2000 ISK
