La Ballade Of Lady & Bird : A Project By Keren Ann Zeidel & Bardi Johannsson

与冰岛交响乐团合作，经典曲目的重新诠释。 On 5 June 2008, Keren Ann Zeidel and Bardi Johannsson (Bang Gang) provided the closing performance at the Reykjavik Artfests festival. Their act went down so well that the festival director was keen to invite them back to perform a in New York in 2010. They were accompanied, for the first time, by the renowned Iceland Symphony Orchestra, a classical ensemble featuring over 80 musicians and conducted by Daniel Kawka (Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra, Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra, Lille National Orchestra, Warsaw Symphony Orchestra and Liege Philharmonic Orchestra). Their musical programme drew on compositions by Lady and Bird, Keren Ann & Bardi's double act, and on their respective repertoires rearranged by Thorvaldur Bjarni Thorvaldsson. The concert recording provided the springboard for Keren Ann and Bardi’s album, conceived as a studio production. The two artists then went to work on the raw material, resulting in a real studio album rather than a simple live recording.
