From the Communities: Composer of the month

May 25, 2012 by Allen H Simon Leave a Comment


The Composers’ Community’s Composer of the month is Iceland’s Hildigunnur Rúnarsdóttir. Blog author Jack Senzig writes:
Her music has depth and a wonderful sonority that rings with a Nordic flavor.  This flavor is trademarked by a sense of melancholy, lyrical melodies, modal keys and open 4ths and 5ths.  Hildigunnur’s music has been compared to Jon Nordal, Jon Leifs and one of my most favorite composers, Einojuhani Rautavaara.
Here’s a sample of her music from the blog post. She has a number of pieces in the community’s Composition Showcase.
