Day #17. Nope, not home yet | computernerd composer
https://hrunars.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/day-17-nope-not-home-yet
Day #16. Uncertainty. Day #18 – not planned. Day #17. Nope, not home yet. September 2, 2010. Can’t say I slept properly on the Abu Dhabi-London flight, mostly 10-15 minutes at a time. But the flight went well, and not a mention of ash in the in-flight messages until right at the end when we had to fly an extra round about Heathrow Airport since it was newly opened and there was a queue of planes to land. Never seen before how Iceland’s name looks in arabic:. This here was a lovely sight:. A quick trip do...

our new concert hall | computernerd composer

Day #18 – not planned. Our new concert hall. May 1, 2011. Anyway, the concert halls and conference centers are pretty well full booked for the next year already, apparently. Do take a look here. We’re totally excited! Responses to “our new concert hall”. Feed for this Entry. May 2, 2011 at 2:32 pm. Well, I don’t have doubts that those abroad who bought tickets for Jonas Kaufmann’s concert want to use their tickets, actually there should be hardly any other reason to buy a ticket, or :-)?

an eruption – AGAIN! | computernerd composer
https://hrunars.wordpress.com/2011/05/22/an-eruption-again
An eruption – AGAIN! May 22, 2011. Yep, easier to say Grímsvötn than Eyjafjallajökull though. Way easier. Anyway, this is the largest eruption in Grímsvötn for at least the last 100 years. Also seems to be quite a bit more powerful than last year’s thing. Hopefully shorter lived, though. Photo borrowed from ruv.is. 8211; hope they won’t mind the hotlink). Also interesting to follow the iceberg lagoon live broadcast here. Responses to “an eruption – AGAIN! Feed for this Entry. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Day #18 – not planned | computernerd composer
https://hrunars.wordpress.com/2010/09/26/day-18-not-planned
Day #17. Nope, not home yet. Our new concert hall. Day #18 – not planned. September 26, 2010. After falling asleep around 7 PM I of course woke up around midnight, definitely not on the plan! Fortunately fell asleep again. I could definitely get used to the king size plus bed, we could have slept in a T if we had wanted. Finally in the air, really really looking forward to getting home. Bought a glass of red wine each (hey, it was about 5 PM in our body time, even though it was morning for most every...

Archive for July, 2010. July 23, 2010. Just wanted to share one of my pieces, from when I went to Norway in March this year. Christians Consort and Agder Orkesterforening play the Agnus Dei, the last movement from Mass of Guðbrandur. Martin Pearson conducting. Will keep on with my Australian travel diary soon, promise :). Day #9 First day of touristing. July 19, 2010. The Harbour Bridge was awe-inspiring too, 500 metres between the piers but we walked quite a bit longer than that kilometre, you can’...

Archive for August, 2010. Day #16. Uncertainty. August 29, 2010. Woke up some time in the morning, 2 hours until landing in Abu Dhabi. Those 2 hours seemed incredibly short, when you’re in such a long flight 2 hours are nothing at all. Got some weird small really thick pancakes for breakfast, I was sorry not to have asked for the cheese omelet also on the menu. The yogurt with honey and fresh fruit was excellent, though. Free wi-fi at the gates, now why don’t more airports have this? August 25, 2010.

An eruption – AGAIN! May 13, 2011. Formal opening ceremony tonight, hopefully possible to watch here. Starts 17:50 GMT. (in a bit less than 2 hours). Can’t wait. My huge choir will sing the 4th movement of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony at the end of the concert around 20:00 GMT or so if anyone’s interested. Will post a link if this will be available on the net afterwards but I’m not sure it will be. Responses to “More Harpa”. Feed for this Entry. May 18, 2011 at 8:08 pm. It could happen, you know!
