Tómas R. Einarsson & Eyþór Gunnarsson – The Nordic House Concert Series
21:00
On the recently released album Innst Inni, the accomplished double-bass player and composer Tómas R. Einarsson joins forces with Eyþór Gunnarsson, a veteran at the piano with a masterful touch. The album was mostly an improvised affair – the result of the magic that happens when two creative minds meet. There is something sublime about the sound of Tómas and Eyþór playing jazz together, so as a listener, all you have to do is sit back and enjoy. As critic C. Michael Bailey writes: “Innst Inni is decidedly untethered to any particular nationalistic or music point of origin. It is simply music…uncomplicated and soothing”.
The Nordic House Concert Series made a success last summer when it had its premiere. Now the series is back this year again with an impressive line-up! The enchanting Sumie from Sweden and the introverted romantic Thomas Dybdahl from Norway will visit us this year. In addition, some of Iceland’s most famous and talented musicians are featured. All concerts start at 21:00 on Wednesdays, from June 20 to August 15. Tickets 2000 Isk.
