Veranstaltungsort: Harpa Concert Hall, Reykjavík

The Iceland Symphony Orchestra opens its season with a dazzling showpiece by Thomas Adès.

For 24 years, the festival of Dark Music Days has fuelled imagination with contemporary music, thanks to the initiative of the Icelandic Composer’s Union. And with the advent of a glamorous concert hall in the midst of crisis and bankruptcy, the glittering Harpa, the crowds have grown in numbers every year.
