Ticket prices from

ISK 4,900

Candy Floss is the release concert for a colorful and vibrant new album for electric guitar. This Sunday Classics program explores the electric guitar in its fullest form, transforming the instrument through layers of sound, effects, and extended techniques. The audience will experience a powerful sonic landscape where the guitar moves between intimacy and overwhelming intensity, as a solo instrument, together with tape, and through a wide range of textures and colors.

The program brings together minimalist works by Steve Reich, John Cage, and Bryce Dessner alongside new contemporary pieces by Finnur Karlsson, Nick Martin, and Francesco Rista.

Expect a massive and immersive audio experience, a journey through bright colors, dense sound worlds, and the endless possibilities of the electric guitar.

  Sunday Classics is a classical concert series and individual events in Norðurljós or Kaldalón in Harpa most Sundays at 16:00, from September to May each year.
