Friday, December 5th at 18:00, singer Silva Þórðardóttir will perform at the next Afternoon Concerts in Hafnarborg, joined by Þorgrímur Jónsson on double bass and Andrés Þór Gunnlaugsson on guitar. The program will feature a mix of Christmas music and well-known jazz standards.
Silva Þórðardóttir studied jazz singing at the FÍH School of Music and released the standards album Skylark in 2019. Since then, she has performed with many of the country’s leading jazz musicians, received three nominations for the Icelandic Music Awards for jazz vocals, and regularly performs with the vocal collective Jazzkonur. Silva & Steini (Steingrímur Teague) released the album More Than You Know in 2022 to exceptional reception, and songs from the album have now been streamed around six million times. Last Christmas, they released Christmas with Silva & Steini, followed by More Understanding this September.
The concert lasts about one hour and admission is free.
The concert series is supported by the Town of Hafnarfjörður.
