Me and librettist Rebecca Hurst are nominated as authors for Gríman (Iceland annual stage arts awards) for our opera Music and the Brain which was performed in Reykjavík last year. We are nominated in the category "Sproti ársins" which gives an award for "originality or outstanding innovation." Many thanks to the Gríman committee.
Sincere thanks also to the great artists who performed our opera: Gunnar Gudbjörnsson as The Doctor, Þórgunnur Anna Örnólfsdóttir as The Singer, Antonia Hevesí pianist and Helen Whitaker flautist.
