The Reykjavík Grapevine 39 Issue 12 — 2018
Our Picks land Symphony Orchestra. She's also a party animal celebrating her 70th birthday with a marathon of every single piece Mozart ever wrote for violin and piano. This iteration sees her joining up with Gerrit Schuil for Sonata in G Major Guðný Guðmundsdóttir: Mozart KV 27 (The Hague, Marathon 1766), Sonata in July 22- 12:15 - Hannesarholt - 3,000 ISK A Major KV 305 (Paris, 1778), and Sonata in E Flat Guðný Guðmunds- former concertdóttir is the master of the Ice- Major KV 380 (Vi-
enna). The Sonata in G Major is a particular standout. Composed for Princess Caroline of NassauWeilburg, the piece was written when Mozart was just 10 years old. It’s ornate and grandiose, the perfect entry into Mozart’s early years. Bonus: If you’re a student, tickets are only 1,500 ISK. Be there or be... Salieri. HJC
