I’ve been making this podcast for over a year now, and I’ve been a fan of Björk for much longer than that. But there was one aspect of her music I hadn’t experienced… I’d never seen her live.

I had an opportunity in 2017 when she came to the Walt Disney Concert Hall, but silly me thought the tickets were “too expensive.” And I’ve regretted it ever since. Because how many more chances would I get to see Björk perform live?

Then on a Sunday morning in early October, I got a message from a listener named Jose... that changed everything.

In this episode, I’ll share my pilgrimage to Reykjavik for the second Björk Orkestral show. I’ll describe the places from Björk's life and career that I visited, how these places helped me to better understand and appreciate her music… And, most importantly, I’ll give you a full recap of her performance with the Hamrahlið Choir at Harpa. I even got to interview a few members of the choir, so be sure to listen to the end to hear what it’s like to perform with Björk.
