The Chamber Choir Hljómeyki has been around since 1974. We vary in size, from 12 to 25 members, depending on what program we are doing.
We have worked with various artists, usually do 1-2 gigs with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra, sometimes recordings for movie tracks and varying other projects. Did a recording for Barry Adamson and Pan Sonic in 2001.
Our main thing is performing new choral music, mainly but not exclusively Icelandic. We have done over 40 first performances of new pieces, mostly written for us. Noted composer Richard Rodney Bennett wrote a piece for a consortium of choirs, Hljómeyki being one of them.
Hey Hljómeyki .. sumarið er rétt ókomið! Dísel vilja hjálpa þér að komast í sumarskap og viljum því benda þér á Sumar á ný ... það kemur okkur allavegana í sumarskap og ætti að gera það sama fyrir þig!
