Preface<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now the ninth issue of this big-hearted web publication appears here. It has constantly matured and grown, and this large section of articles is becoming more than a footnote in the Icelandic debate about music.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And like some other things that are well nourished and growing rapidly, it's as if it's messing around: This time, a special chapter is devoted to discussing the work of the composer Pauline Oliveros, a testimony from the Laboratory of Music at LH\u00cd, as Berglind Mar\u00eda T\u00f3masd\u00f3ttir introduces us at the front of that chapter.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is material that arose directly from the school's work, exactly as was hoped for in the establishment of Threads. It is no less gratifying that the school's students have a good share here: Tumi \u00c1rnason writes directly from the present about the work of Weston Olencki, while \u00de\u00f3rbergur Bollason screens back to the Middle Ages and discusses \u00deorl\u00e1k times. Students also give an account of a research project carried out under the guidance of \u00deorbjargar Daphne Hall in an article about the jazz music scene in Iceland.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It should not be surprising that reflections on music studies from the school's two experienced and multifaceted teachers appear here: Sigur\u00f0ur Halld\u00f3rsson talks about a special international collaboration on music in the field of health, but El\u00edn Gunnlaugsd\u00f3ttir wonders how best to teach composition, if it should be possible at all.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Those who think that Threads overlook popular culture need to change their minds when Linda Bjargar Gu\u00f0mundsd\u00f3ttir's fascinating testimony about Eurovision is revealed to them. Although science can be considered our passion, passion can become a science in its own way, as in Linda Bjargar's article.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This time there are two branches devoted to the great special field of composition On the one hand, Einar Torfi Einarsson leads us into the world of riddle music, for riddles can truly become music and do it regularly There may not be riddles, but certainly a hidden reality that underlies the serialistic compositions of the last centuryI thought it appropriate to translate and cook a slightly important article by Gy\u00f6rgy Ligeti that appeared in the heyday of serialism She has a message for all those concerned with the content and mission of compositions, as well as those in our day.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This last-mentioned article is like a new sprout in the topsoil of Threads, because translations of the writings of well-known composers have not previously appeared here. I allow myself to hope that it will prosper and more will follow suit, as there is a good collection of articles by pioneers of new music that would be obtained in Icelandic.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I thank Einar Torfa Einarsson and \u00deorbj\u00f6rg Daphne Hall for their cooperation in the composition of this issue - no, code bundle - and I wish you the reader pleasure and benefit from reading.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
