By using the oldest Nordic instruments, poetry and poetic metres in a contemporary soundscape, Einar has managed to merge the scholarly with the pop-cultural and give a new voice to old thoughts, tools and techniques, reaching audiences world-wide and stretching the limitations of musical genres.<\/p>\n<p>In this session Einar will be speaking about his research and approach to Old Nordic music and poetic performance, and the extensive creative concepts behind his own creations. He will also demonstrate a selection of the Old Nordic instruments both solo and in interaction with Old Norse poetry, as well as performing various <em>Wardruna<\/em> songs acoustically.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5125 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/nordichouse.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/12805663_966143926800621_8524252636506597628_n-424x640.jpg\" alt=\"12805663_966143926800621_8524252636506597628_n\" width=\"243\" height=\"367\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/nordichouse.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/12805663_966143926800621_8524252636506597628_n-424x640.jpg 424w, https:\/\/nordichouse.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/12805663_966143926800621_8524252636506597628_n.jpg 636w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 243px) 100vw, 243px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 243px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 243\/367;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/einar.selvik?fref=ts\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Einar Selvik Words and Music Concert at The Nordic House &#8211;\u00a0Saturday 24th September &#8211;\u00a08.00 p.m. \u00a0SOLD OUT!
