Dark Music Days
The Festival
Dark Music Days is an Icelandic contemporary music festival held annually in Reykjavík, Iceland. Established by the Society of Icelandic Composers in 1980, the festival places emphasis on premiering new and often experimental pieces that reflect the ever-growing diversity and creativity of contemporary music. Dark Music Days plays a vital role in the Icelandic music scene, as both an eye-opener for the general public, as well as an incubator for innovation, collaboration and inspiration, within the musical community itself.
