Trad Music Session // Þjóðlagasamspil
Apr 1 @ 18:00 – 22:00

This will comprise a learning session kl. 18-20, and an open session 20-22 – non-players welcome from 20 onwards. The learning session will be geared towards those who play instruments already, and want to learn more about styles of folk music and add to their repertoire.

If you know what a session is, come and bring songs and tunes (if you have them)! If not, read on.

This session is the only one currently in Iceland but it’s a really common format throughout the English and Gaelic-speaking world and in lots of parts of Europe and probably lots of other places too. The idea is that people come with unamplified music and songs and dances and then do them with other people, usually in a common style.

Because we are quite international, most commonly you’ll hear Irish music and songs, and also from Iceland, Scandinavia, Britain, North America and Europe. These days (since the 1960s), usually a session will happen in a pub, or sometimes a house. It’s not like a concert because it’s not a performance and there’s not really an audience, though there are often people that just come to listen or chat and maybe join in with some singing if they’re feeling that way inclined. It’s also not like a jam session because there are set songs and tunes which all the people participating will know, or are learning. If you want to learn some of these, there’s lots to help you at

If you don’t play or have a song to bring you’re more than welcome to come and hang out with your friends, and talking, drinking etc. is encouraged during the music – the more atmosphere the better. Sometimes everyone might be quiet to listen to a solo singer. Often you’ll be able to pick up the choruses to the songs and are welcome to join in.

Accessibility:

There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door).

Skrifum bréf til Saháwra pólitíska fanga // Letter writing to Sahawri Political Prisoners
Apr 7 @ 19:00
// ENGLISH BELOW
Vissirðu að Sahárar aðgerðasinnar og blaðamenn verða fyrir einangrun og ómannúðlegri meðferð í marokkóskum fangelsum?
Mohammend Lamin Haddi var dæmdur í 25 ára fangelsisvist fyrir að aðstoða belgíska lækna sem unnu á hernumdum svæðum. Hann er núna í hungurverkfalli til að fordæma síendurtekin brot á mannréttindum í marokkóska fangelsinu Tifelt 2. Líðan hans er krítisk.
Laasiri Salek sem er vel þekktur Sahári aðgerðasinni hefur verið dæmdur í lífstíðar fangelsi. Hann var handtekinn 2004 fyrir að taka þátt í mótmælum á móti hernáminu.
Og þetta eru einungis tveir einstaklingar af fjölda annarra sem sæta álíka meðferð..
Skrifum þeim bréf til að láta þá vita að heimurinn hefur ekki gleymt þeim!
Og jafnvel þó bréfin nái ekki til þeirra getum við fordæmt opinberlega einangrunina sem Marokkó beitir fólkið!
Fyrir frjálsa Vestur Sahara!
(það verður þýðandi fyrir arabisku á stað)
// Ef þú þekkir ekki baráttu Sahára fólksins fyrir sjálfstæði, þá er velkomið að mæta og spjalla saman um það.
________________________
Did you know that Sahawri activists and journalists suffer isolation and inhumane treatment in Moroccan Prisons?
Mohammed Lamin Haddi was sentenced to 25 years of prisons for helping Belgian Doctors in the occupied territory and is now in hungerstrike to denounce the constant violation of human rights in the Morroccan prison Tifelt 2. His situation is critical.
Laasiri Salek a well known Saharwi Activist is deemed to live long imprisonment. He was arrested 2004 for having attented an anti occupation demonstration in the city of Tan Tan.
Just to mention two of the many…
Lets write them letters and let them known that they are not forgotten by the rest of the world!
And even if the letters do not reach them we can denounce their isolation enforced by Morocco!
For a Free West Sahara!
(there will be a translator for arabic)
// If you do not know about the struggle of the Saharwi People for Independence you are welcome to come by and have a chat.
