About

Halden is the solo project of composer Sigrún Halldórsdóttir — patient, glacial music built from tape loops, bowed guitar and recordings of wind across the North Atlantic.

Her pieces have scored dance works, art installations and one very long night in a lighthouse. Live, she performs in near-darkness, surrounded by speakers.

Press
