Haukur þór Harðarson
Komponist
*1989
Haukur Þór Harðarson’s work probes the physicality of the space in which listening occurs. Through the delicate and morphological transformation of sounds and resonances, he explores the possibility of bringing the listener into closer contact with the acoustic space and time in which they find themselves. His music, comprising both acoustic and electro-acoustic works, has been described as fragile, delicate, intense, focused and physical.
Haukur studied composition with Atli Ingólfsson at the Icelandic Academy of the Arts and with Richard Ayres and Wim Henderickx at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, followed by a Sonology course at the Royal Conservatory of the Hague. Alongside his studies, he has participated in workshops and festivals including Voix Nouvelles (Royaumont Abbey, 2014), Musiikin Aika (Vitasaari, 2015), Mixtur (Barcelona, 2016), the International Young Composers Academy (Tchaikovsky City, 2016) and Darmstädter Ferienkurse (Darmstadt, 2018). He has had lessons with with composers including Brian Ferneyhough, Carola Bauckholt, Chaya Czernowin, Dmitri Kourliandski, Fabien Levy, Johannes Schöllhorn, Mark André, Peter Ablinger, Oscar Bianchi, George Lewis, Milica Djordjević, Liza Lim and Rebecca Saunders.
His works have been performed by ensembles and musicians such as the Icelandic Symphony Orchestra, Ensemble Adapter, Caput, Neon, Ensemble Recherche, Neue Vocalsolisten, Asko/ Schönberg, Nieuw Ensemble, TAK, Quatuor Diotima, Departure Duo, Siggi String Quartet, Taïga String Quartet, Elektra Ensemble, Moscow Contemporary Music Ensemble, Loadbang, Marco Fusi, Jack Adler McKean, Sophie Fetokaki, Una Sveinbjarnardóttir, Sarah Saviet, Dejana Sekulic and Ingólfur Vilhjálmsson and has been featured in festivals and concert series including Dark Music Days (IS), Iceland in New York (U.S.), An Evening of Today (NL), Cluster (DE), 15:15 (IS), Sonic festival (DK), Musik 21 (DE), Open days (DK), Transarts (IT) and Ung Nordisk Musik (Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland), of which he was also the co-organiser in 2017.
Haukur is a member and co-founder of the composers collective Errata. The collective's first album, Errata I (recorded in Gothenburg, Sweden in 2017), explores ideas of using the recording studio as a compositional instrument. He also is a co-founder and co-artistic director of the concert series Active-Listening that was launched in Berlin in 2019 and which continued in the beginning of 2021 as a festival.
He is based in Berlin where he works as a freelance composer, organiser and editor.
