Faroe Islands Tourism

Sun, 06 Mar 2016 13:22:18 +0000

Captivating natural beauty, ancient lore, and secret solitude... Combine this with a culture of celebration and it's easy to see why the Faroe Islands are considered by many the "best kept secret in Europe".

Dazzling landscapes offer a variety of activities such as fishing, hiking, camping, and boat trips. No wonder National Geographic has named the Faroe Islands the best islands to visit in the world.

Situated between Iceland, Norway, and the UK, the Faroe Islands are home to roughly 50,000 people, and one of the world's smallest capitals, Torshavn.

Visit Faroe Islands. Unspoiled, Unexplored, Unbelievable.

Cruising The Faroe Islands

Sun, 06 Mar 2016 13:22:18 +0000

Decades ago, I was leafing through the pages of National Geographic magazine when I came upon a photograph of a grass-roofed house in the Faroe Islands. The image of that fairy-tale-like home engaged my imagination, and thus began my desire to visit the exotic cluster of islands that had etched an indelible image in my mind.

My Trip To The Faroe Islands!

Sun, 06 Mar 2016 13:22:18 +0000

So this is the video I shot during my 7 day long stay in the Faroe Islands, 2013.
I'm sorry that I'm not being the optimal tourguide, but I was so busy exploring my surroundings - 620 miles away from home.
All in all it was a fantastic trip, and it was my first time there. Nice people and fantastic surroundings plus an average summer temperature of 14 degrees centigrade, hooray! :-)

The Faroe Islands are a group of vulcanic islands in the North Atlantic Ocean, under the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Denmark. The Faroe Islands have been a self-governing country within the Danish Realm since 1948.
Inhabitants: 49,7 thousand people of which the 20 thousand (approximately) inhabit the capital, Tórshavn, and the surrounding urban area.
The language is Faroese, which is an Insular Nordic language spoken as a native language by about 66,000 people, 45,000 of which reside on the Faroe Islands and 21,000 in other areas, mainly Denmark. It is one of four languages descended from the Old West Norse language spoken in the Middle Ages, the others being Icelandic, Norwegian and the extinct Norn, which is thought to have been mutually intelligible with Faroese.

Carl Nielsen - Rhapsody Overture, 'An Imaginary Trip To The Faroe Islands'

Sun, 06 Mar 2016 13:22:18 +0000

Rhapsody Overture 'En fantasirejse til Faeroene' (An Imaginary Trip to the Faroe Islands), FS123; it was written for a pair of concerts in which a group of fifty Faroese singers were to perform some of their national songs at Copenhagen's Royal Theatre. Typically, Nielsen worked right up to the last minute on his contribution to the concerts; his Overture was premiered at the first of the two, on November 27, 1927. It turned out that the Faroese singers themselves were unable to make the concerts due to a flu epidemic. Then, ironically, travelling to Denmark for the rescheduled concerts, they were held up by a hurricane in the Atlantic (Nielsen's Overture depicts in part a stormy sea voyage). Nielsen thought little of his Overture, calling it "only a piece of jobbery." Written in between the Flute and Clarinet Concertos, the Overture (more properly a symphonic poem, of which Nielsen wrote very few) is in fact an interesting work and very typical of his late style. Soft timpani rolls establish a sense of mystery and gloom. Gradually, the strings intone an unsettled melody, and a lonely French horn sings out. Brass fanfares threaten, but a noble tune wins out and builds to an impressive climax. Nielsen here employs a Faroese folk song, "Easter bells chime softly," which at the time was well known in Denmark. The music is cheerful, even triumphant towards the end, but ends quietly.

Performers: Herbert Blomstedt & Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra.
