Deutsche Grammophon is delighted to announce the release of Longer shadows, softer stones, the debut Yellow Label EP from Snorri Hallgrímsson. The Icelandic composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist has collaborated with DG several times in recent years, creating imaginative reworks of “Idylle” from Satie’s Avant-dernières pensées (2021), Víkingur Ólafsson’s performance of “Vogel als Prophet” from Schumann’s Waldszenen (“The Plover and the Raven”, 2023) and Lili Boulanger’s D’un vieux jardin (2024). Now he has written and produced six original tracks for an EP that encourages us to travel with hope, despite the darkness of the world around us. Hallgrímsson provides the vocals in the opening track, as well as playing piano and programming the recording’s electronic elements. He is joined by string players from the Reykjavík Orchestra, conducted by Viktor Orri Árnason.
