Gisladottir / Sverrisson / Brjansdottir- Viddir (Live) (CD)
?Bára GÃsladóttir wrote VIDDIR to mark the end of her studies at the Royal Danish Academy of Music in Copenhagen. The title of the piece translates as 'dimensions', and from it's first sounds of five bass flautists screaming, 'as strong as possible', into their instruments, it is clear that VIDDIR is not a light-hearted leap into a new life. It is a black night of a piece. An abyss, into which GÃsladóttir has dived and reached deeply. An unbroken hour in length, it returns again and again to it's own dark light.
