Eivör in concert

Watching a falling star (like I did last night) is a matter of chance - listening to its sound is a gift from heaven.
It had been an evening when life simply smiled on us - we went enjoying the rarely announced concert of Eivör Pálsdóttir, the farese singer with the incredible voice, in Langholtchurch in Reykjavík. The church is a beautiful modern building with high ceiling and a massive organ - perfect stage for "just" the voice of a barefoot singer.





Her voice sailed through the air and covered our souls like a tender veil, touching emotions in kind of a blessed and unmentionable way, and her harmonies went directly into the heart.

It has been a long time ago that I felt tears in my eyes while listening to someone singing.

She touched God Himself.

So it was only natural that on my way home heaven opened and gave us a northern light covering the entire firmament ...
