"Infinitely more compelling at the same concert was the world première of I am not welcome by Norwegian composer Birgit Djupedal. (...) What followed was as astonishing as it was devastating, the words exploding into a myriad fragments communicated through an ever-changing cavalcade of fiery emotional contortions, by turns elegant, animalistic, animatronic, tender, brutal, unhinged, lucid, mature, infantile, exquisite and excruciating. It was by far the most stunning (literally) performance I experienced during my entire time in Iceland; just incredible."
