Thuridur Jonsdottir
1967
Iceland
Thurídur Jónsdóttir completed her studies at the Reykjavik Conservatory of music. In 1989 she moved to Bologna, studying composition with, among others, A. Solbiati and C. Landuzzi and receiving diplomas in flute, composition and electronic music from the G. B. Martini Conservatory.
Jónsdóttir has frequently tackled the relation between acoustic and electronic sounds and her activity as a performer has provided her with means to explore this relationship extensively. As a flutist she has collaborated with the Toscanini Symphony Orchestra, the orchestra of the Teatro Comunale in Bologna, and with numerous smaller ensembles, many dedicated to the performance of contemporary music.
