In these daydreams, she was a meteorological maestro: controlling the Icelandic storm fronts in the distance, bending the weather and the world to her will like an orchestra. \u201cThe weather was intense where I grew up but so inspiring. There was such harshness to our winters, but at the same time, such beauty. I used to sit there for hours,\u201d recalls the Bl\u00f6ndu\u00f3s-born composer. Years later, Evensen is still finding musical expressions for the awe she feels when staring out at the vastness of nature. <em>Bylur<\/em>, the pianist\u2019s mesmerising debut album, is a calming contemporary classical diary of her life to date, that takes its name from the Icelandic word for \u2018snowstorm.\u2019 She chose that title for good reason. \u201cAll of these songs are moments from my life,\u201d she says. \u201cSo many ups and downs. All of my joy, darkness, happiness, heartbreak, and melancholia.\u201d A snowstorm contains multitudes: there\u2019s chaos and adversity to them, but beauty and fragility too. The same could be said about this emotionally eclectic album: an enchanting float of stirring piano melodies and tender strings from a force-of-nature new talent.","content2":"","media":{"videoUrl":"https:\/\/youtu.be\/FBtqsA2BqHU","image":"","caption":"","poster":""},"text_indentation":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
