Product Description

"Vöggubarnsins mál" (The Infant's Speech) is a poem describing a newborn baby, and the joys that looking upon such a baby brings.

Guðfinna Jónsdóttir (18991946) from Hömrum was an organist and poet who lived a quiet and isolated life in Northern Iceland. She wrote beautiful poems about her life, filled with with tragedies, death and unrequited love. In her own time her work wasn't well known outside of her hometown, and today she is more or less forgotten.

In collaboration with the singer Helga Ragnarsdóttir, the composer Knut Rygnestad has set several of her poems to music for voice and piano, with the aim of making them better known in Iceland and throughout the world. The project received funding from the Norwegian Arts Council and Hljóðritasjóður Rannís, and an album of nine recorded songs, "Ótal stjarna hröp", was released in 2023.
