SUMMARTÓNAR 2016
This year we celebrate the
25th Summartónar festival
Beginning in 1984, Faroese composers
started organizing concerts of their
own music together with works by
international composers. After establishing
the Association of Faroese Composers
(Felagið Føroysk Tónaskøld) in 1987 these
concerts became more regular, especially
with the annual Spring Concert and a
series of concerts over the summer in
collaboration with the Listasavn Føroya.
In 1991 a concert with works by several
Faroese composers was presented at
the St Magnus Festival in Orkney. After
participating at a festival in a community
comparable with the Faroe Islands, we
decided to establish a similar festival the
following year in the Faroe Islands. We
used the name Summartónar from the
beginning and in 1992 15 concerts were
held in Tórshavn, Kirkjubø and Runavík with
compositions by William Heinesen, Edvard
Nyholm Debess, Alti K. Petersen, Pauli í
Sandagerði, Heðin Meitil, Bjarni Restorff,
Ólavur Jøkladal, H.J. Højgaard, Esmar
Jacobsen, Sunleif Rasmussen, Kristian
Blak, Richard Stanley and Graeme Rudd in
addition to classical repertoire.
This year we celebrate the 25th festival
with all the performing artists being either
residents of the Faroe Islands or Faroese
2
musicians living abroad. However, several
of the participating ensembles also include
musicians from other countries: Greenland,
Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark,
Germany, England, Russia, Togo. It is a
sign of the strenth of the Faroese musical
scene that it is now quite possible to set up
a programme of more than 150 concerts
with predominantly local musicians
performing mainly Faroese compositions
at an international level, and we are also
proud of the fact that Faroese musicians
and composers are now an integrated part
of an international musical network.
During the early years, Summartónar’s
programme consisted mainly of classical
and newly written music in contemporary
classical style. From 2005, however, jazz
and new folk became an integral part of
the activity.
Over the years more than 1600 concerts
have been presented and each year
several new works are performed - over
500 compositions have had their world
premieres at Summartónar, the majority of
these written by Faroese Composers.
