Symphony Orchestras · Iceland

music

The Hamrahlid Choir or Hamrahlíðarkórinn as it is called in Icelandic was founded in 1981 by Þorgerður Ingólfsdóttir, who has remained its conductor since then. The choir consists of alumni of Menntaskólinn við Hamrahlíð in Iceland who were formerly members of The Choir of Hamrahlid College, conducted by Ingólfsdóttir until her official retirement in 2017. The choir should not be confused with the Hamrahlid College Choir, which continues to operate under the direction of Ingólfsdóttir's successor, Hreiðar Ingi Þorsteinsson.
