Olga formed in 2012. It started small, but they soon had their first show (at the Icelandic embassy in Brussels), then a debut in the Netherlands, and then a first tour of Iceland in summer of 2013. Since then, Olga has recorded six albums, toured Europe and the United States, and performed in the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Harpa in Reykjav\u00edk, and the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., as well as recently in the Outback in Alice Springs, Australia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>FRAGMENTS &#8211; echoes of a father<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\nIn FRAGMENTS &#8211; echoes of a father, Olga is joined by performer \u00c1sta Sigr\u00ed\u00f0ur Arnard\u00f3ttir, reading texts by poet Maureen Ghazal (originally in Dutch, translated to Icelandic for this performance), to take a journey through a man&#8217;s life &#8211; from youthful dreams to old age, marked by war, exile, and the longing for home.<br \/>\nOlga combines polyphonic singing with the spoken word, connecting memories with the present. Ukrainian, Palestinian, Russian, Hebrew, Icelandic, and Hawaiian songs are interspersed with classical works, gospel, and pop. Each song carries a fragment of a larger story. Maureen Ghazal&#8217;s poetry brings an empathetic layer to the story &#8211; a story of displacement, uprooting, and the search for connection in a world torn apart.<br \/>\nAthugi\u00f0 a\u00f0 h\u00e6gt er a\u00f0 kaupa h\u00e1t\u00ed\u00f0arpassa \u00e1 a\u00f0eins 15.900 kr. sem gildir \u00e1 alla t\u00f3nleika \u00e1 S\u00f6ngh\u00e1t\u00ed\u00f0 \u00ed Hafnarborg 13.6.-28.6.2026.
