Dis

The album Dís is based on music written for the Icelandic film of the same (the first film by director Silja Hauksdottir, based on her own novel.) Like the album Englabörn (Touch 2002), which was based on music originally written for the theater, Dís elaborates and expands on themes used in the film. The intention was to create an album which stands on its own, but which has certain qualities of soundtrack music, including repeated motifs and themes presented in different versions and contexts.
