Sigur

Sigur Rós gave a dozen film makers the same modest budget and asked them to create whatever came into their head when they listened to songs from the band’s most recent album Valtari. Among the filmmakers are Floria Sigismondi, Ramin Bahrani, Alma Har’el, John Cameron Mitchell, and many more. In early 2013, all 16 Valtari films will be collected to- gether for a limited edition, one time pressing, DVD known as the Valtari Film Experiment.

Go is the debut studio album by Icelandic musician Jónsi, frontman of the Post-Rock band Sigur Rós. The album was released on 5 April 2010, through XL Recordings, as reported by a downloadable track from the official site. The album features predominantly acoustic music and string arrangements from composer Nico Muhly. The album was co-produced by Alex Somers, Peter Katis and Jónsi himself, during summer 2009, in Reykjavík and Connecticut.

The 12 Ensemble present 'Death and the Maiden', a powerful and personal journey through an evolving musical landscape that highlights the unique voice and vision of London's pioneering un-conducted string orchestra. With their own arrangement of Schubert's iconic string quartet at its heart, the record features a brand new commission from newly-appointed ROH composer in residence Oliver Leith, alongside a poignant work by Tavener and a tribute to the ensemble's time in Iceland with a heart-felt arrangement of a song by Sigur Rós.
