The Choir of Hallgrímskirkja was founded in the autumn of 2021. The choir consists of over 50 singers that sing both in services and concerts in Hallgrímskirkja. The choir has a wide range of repertoire and has put emphasis on promoting new Icelandic choir music. The Choir of Hallgrímskirkja premiered 5 new pieces by Icelandic composers last year that were commissioned by the choir. The choir has performed with The Icelandic Symphony Orchestra in Hallgrímskirkja and has a fruitful collaboration with Brák Baroque Ensemble. Their last collaboration project was on the First Sunday of Advent and was dedicated to the music of Händel and Telemann on original instruments.
