Dance collaboration + Christmas Concert

Dear All, Guildhall's postgraduate composers and musicians have been working with choreographers and dancers at London Contemporary Dance School over the last two months to produce six new works, that includes me and my lovely choreographer Esther Siddiquie. With us are Ching Man on harp, Andrew Power on cello and Thomas Abela on guitar. These pieces will be given public performances this coming Friday (Dec 7th) and Saturday (Dec 8th) (free for GSMD students and staff).

 Tonight!  is our Christmas concert (more here: http://helgiingvarsson.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/christmas-concert-northern-lights.html) 
Yesterday we had our dress rehearsal, and it was fantastic though I say so my self. We´ve already sold 160 tickets out of 200 and expect that the rest will sell by the door tomorrow. Here you can see our soloists, Björg Þórhallsdóttir (soprano) and Bragi Jónsson (bass), rehearsing with our accompanists, Hilmar Örn and Guðný Jónasar, at the Icelandic embassy last night.
