Haukur Tòmasson (1960, Iceland) lives and works in Reykjavik After his graduation in composition at the Reykjavik College of Music Haukur Tòmasson continued to study in Cologne, Amsterdam and at the University of California, San Diego. Among his composition teachers were Thorkell Sigurbjörnsson, Atli Heimir Sveinsson, Ton de Leeuw, Roger Reynolds and Brian Ferneyhough. Tòmassons earliest composition, Spiral (1992), is considered a vivid example of inventive lyricism, with its rich use of flute, harpsichord, oboe and vibes. One of his later works, Stemma, was described by music critic David Lewis as an evocative tone poem that confirms why Tòmasson is that rarity - an inventive composer with a pop diva's touch.
