Páll Ragnar Pálsson is a composer born in Iceland but now living in Tallinn, Estonia.
Páll grew up in ReykjavÃk where he studied music and played with a rock band.
Iceland is situated far north and therfore the sunlight either barely reaches there in wintertime or simply stays there throughout most of the summer.
The wintertime seems like a endless twilight with the sun painting a line between the earth and sky while the bright summer nights put everything into a new perspective.
These elements have shaped the outlines of Páll..s artistic creation.
But there is more.
Páll now lives in Estonia where he studies music composition. Now he is surrounded with trees instead of mountains and absorbs new things every day.
