Clarinet recital at the Nordic House in Reykjavik in 2002. This was Bragi's final concert before graduating from the Sigursveinn D. Kristinsson music school. Like many other things Bragi does, he decided to do his "classical" clarinet recital a little different. The 1st part is quite traditional - clarinet with piano. The 2nd half, however, is Klezmer music that Bragi arranged, except for the last song which he borrowed from a Czeck children's TV show. He also got some great musicians to rehearse and play with him (they're listed below). Clarinet: Bragi Þór Valsson Piano (1st half): Þóra Fríða Sæmundsdóttir Guitar: Ragnar Örn Emilsson Bass: Daníel Brandur Sigurgeirsson Drums: Hannes Pétursson Piano & Accordion (2nd half): Stefán Arason
