Music in Iceland

I play alot of music, if I‘m not playing it on my basses I‘m listening on it. I‘ve played on contra bass for seven years. I‘ve also played in many symphonies and once I played in the Iceland opera. For many years the official Symphony in Iceland have been fighting for an new music house in Reykjavík. The band have been playing in Háskólabíó since 1980. Háskólabó nearly takes 1000 people and the sound maybe gets perfectly to 200 people. Now the city is building a new symphony house, and all the music people think it is victory for them to get a new music house.
