Alex Somers and Jónsi Birgisson perform excerpts from Riceboy Sleeps with The Wordless Music Orchestra and the Latvian National Choir; White Light Festival, New York City

What follows is not a typical post, but rather, an opportunity to share a wonderful live concert moment I was fortunate enough to attend.   It was as close to a Sigur Rós concert as it gets without actually being Sigur Rós-world premiere performances of music from Jónsi and Alex’s 2009 ambient album Riceboy Sleeps and choral works from SR keyboardist Kjartan Sveinsson.  Here’s the link to the archived concert stream, which was originally posted on November 22 by Nadia Sirota at Q2 :
