Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Snorri was born in Reykjavik, Iceland, October 28th 1963, the youngest of five siblings. His real name is Snorri Gudmundsson. He claims that growing up in Iceland was a great experience and the closeness to the country's unspoiled wilderness truly impacted his upbringing.
Snorri lived in Reykjavik from birth until 1988, when he left for Florida, to study Aerospace Engineering, his childhood dream. He graduated Magna Cum Laude in 1991 with B.Sc. and in 1993 with M.Sc. in Aerospace Engineering from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Currently, he is a practicing Aerospace Engineer with Cirrus Design Corporation in Duluth, Minnesota, where he resides.
Snorri has been involved in music since an early age and was initially taught to play the piano by his mother. However, for the most part he is self-taught. Being exposed to the work of the geniuses of classical music at an early age shaped Snorri's musical aspirations. Among his favorite artists are Rachmaninoff, Tchaikovsky, Chopin, and Debussy.
Less demanding and relaxing melodic music has always appealed to Snorri. Besides Classical Music, his favorite music is contemporary instrumental music, which he claims allows the composer to express deep emotions in a very special way. Among artists that have influenced him are Vangelis, Yanni, Giovanni, and Himekami.
