Icelandic poetry past and present channelled into music filled with beauty, nostalgia and a sense of human vulnerability, composer Viktor Orri Árnason marks his signing to Deutsche Grammophon with Poems, a spellbinding debut album. Árnason wrote Poems in collaboration with rising-star soprano Álfheiður Erla Guðmundsdóttir. The 10-track album features their own verse as well as that of Ólöf Sigurðardóttir frá Hlöðum (1857-1933), Hulda (Unnur Benediktsdóttir Bjarklind, 1881-1946), Guðfinna Jónsdóttir frá Hömrum (1899-1946), Sigurður Pálsson (1948-2017) and Arndís Lóa Magnúsdóttir (b.1994).
Genre: Modern Classical / Neoclassical / Icelandic Folk
