All Saints\u2018 day, is celebrated on the first Sunday of November. It is a day of remembrance for the faithful – to reflect on and express gratitude for their loved ones who have died. Many beautiful sacred compositions – requiems, motets and hymns – are connected to this day. It has been a tradition for many years at Hallgr\u00edmskirkja to celebrate All Saints\u2018 day with a concert.   <\/p>\n

In this year’s concert, Schola Cantorum, The Chamber Choir of Hallgr\u00edmskirkja, presents sacred compositions by composers known for their beautiful musical language, that connects the past and the present.  <\/p>\n
