The Lost Ship / Árásin á Goðafoss
Produced by Reykjavik Films ©2009

A documentary about the Icelandic freighter Godafoss that was sunk by a German submarine in November 1944. Godafoss was coming from New York via England when it was torpedoed by the U-300 just before it came to harbor in Reykjavik. 42 people died in the attack. Godafoss was shot down in shallow water, close to land and a lot of people saw it sink – but the ship has never been found!

COLD SHOWER / Köld sturta

March Paralelle (2000)
The idea of March Paralelle was born during a rehersal with my windband. Listening to the horn section playing through some Sousa march gave me the idea of writing a march consisting mainly of parallel moving accords. March Paralelle is dedicated to Ludrasveit Verkalydsins (The Workers Windband) in Iceland.
