The famous Icelandic artist is among the favorite voices for Belgium’s The Colorist Orchestra. Their collaboration resulted in an album described by The Guardian “a vibrant, colourful collection of classical and contemporary collisions.”

Emilianei Torrini’s striking voice if often compared to Björk’s, and can be heard on the soundtrack of The Lord of the Rings (2002, dir. Peter Jackson), Men, Women & Children (2014, dir. Jason Reitman), or Tenderness (2009, dir. John Polson).  Her music is recast by the eight members of The Colorist Orchestra in entirely novel forms. Their mesmerizing sound is the result of an incredible combination of unusual musical objects as well as classical instruments used in unconventional ways. The fantastic sets, consisting of constantly evolving wood installation, turn the show into a memorable audio-visual experience.
