about

This is a recording from a tour that the USA Clangers did in November 2022. The material is new and old - from the Fersteinn repertoire - 2 snippets from Landvættirnar fjórar re-arranged, plus two originals written especially for said ensemble.

More about said tour here:

This was the 3rd concert and was held at the legendary Red Room in Baltimore. The local improviser Bao Nguyễn opened up for us. In the Red Room, the tradition is that everyone who performed does a joint improvisation at the end of the concert. That was also the case this evening and we were blessed to get to improvixse with Bao Nguyễn and we had lots of fun.
