A Cold War Reykjavík child is a label that has produced a great many productive artists that have made their mark on the Icelandic Cuture and Art scene.
Reykjavík was a dynamic place to grow up at the time and the post-war era was greatly influenced by the presence of an American Naval Base in the neighboring town of Keflavík.
Bakkastofa
"The city by the river"
the white river has long been searching for an estuary
as the darkness shines with light
she threads the channel knows the clump of rocks
and a grove where the summer flowers spring
under the mountain ingólfs mix blood
and bind on and suction in the same flood
the glacial lake seeks further
and the city looks at the boundaries of rivers and countryside
the city by the river the city of bliss
the message to you is praise to you
from beach to hillside and the beauty of the bay
is a colorful human life - so the loon expresses to me
the river flows its ocean awaits
over the arch arches wide
like ancient waves breaking on sand
and the blessing of good spirits illuminates the land
the city by the river the city of bliss
the message to you is praise to you
may we flourish in sour and sweet
in the southwest, northeast sunshine and wet
THREE ON TRAY
We can only be moved and grateful to have achieved the goal of being able to bring Árborg óð in the form of poetry and song.
Last night, the festival Summer in Selfoss culminated with singing on the slopes and burning, but also with the premiere of a poem and song by Valgeir. It was a beautiful trio from Eyrarbakki that took the stage in a light southeast wind and performed the song for our good bands.
There is a reason to introduce the artists as we are posting the song temporarily here on FB.
They Valgeir Guðjónsson, Vigdís Vala Valgeirsdóttir and Gísli Ragnar Kristjánsson sings the song.
