- Odin's Raven Magic is a 2002 orchestral setting to the Icelandic poem Hrafnagaldr Óðins. The composition was a collaboration by Sigur Rós, Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, Steindór Andersen, Páll Guðmundsson and Maria Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir. It was premiered at the Reykjavík Arts Festival on 24 May 2002 - This is chapter 3.
I was in the choir for in this concert which was one of my best musical experiences to date! It's as awesome piece!!
I'm in awe to even message you. It is to me one of the greatest pieces of music I have ever heard. And say that without exaggeration
I used to tell people: "Sigur Ros could play on rocks, and it would sound good."... HA!!
I heard this, when I arrived Iceland first time with the plane. Before Landing. I cried... You can't imagine. And now, I remember.
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard!
I dedicated this song to my Father when he passed.
Thanks Sigur Ros!
I hadn't heard this in about 6 years and have been looking for the title every since. I finally found it, I'm bout ready to cry tears of baby joy
NinjaTurtleDrummer that's what I just did! It's such a relief when you find it
Bumping this because it must never be forgotten. Outstanding.
odin's raven magic is one of the most beautiful things i've ever heard, not just from sigur ros, but from every musician.
Beautiful as always. Sigur Ros music=what heaven sounds like.
How wonderful!?! This has always been one of my favourite tracks, but to hear it picked up and carried by a very talented orchestra was just amazing.
Hat's off to the choir... that last note is awe inspiring.
odin's raven magic has always known exactly the path to my heart. Dear Odin, please please please give it a proper release some day.
It’s out now. Hope you get a chance to hear it.
No hyperbole, this is probably my favorite live performance of all-time. "Wonderful" just doesn't do it justice.
I listened this for almost one hour, without a break. Now I can die.
@ezzylock It's actually the last track on the Screaming Masterpiece soundtrack. I purchased it as soon as I found it, myself. It's available on amazon.
Increible! Los sigo desde que descubrí el Agaetis Byrjun en el 2000. No he encontrado otro grupo que me haya impactado tanto. Su discografia deberia ser objeto de estudio! :D
Salud para todos!
The instrument in question appears to be some form of lithophone. If anyone's interested, keyword search "soniccouture", which is the name of a company that sells soft synth sound libraries, go to their products page, and check out "The Skiddaw Stones", which has a lot of useful information and sound demos about this kind of instrument.
First time listening to this, ahead of the public release in a few days... SO GOOD
THIS IS AN AWESOME SONG, I'VE BEEN IN LOVE WITH IT FOR YEARS, IT WAS A MIRACLE PERFORMANCE, I WISH I'D BEEN THERE AND THAT I HAD HIGH QUALITY MP3 OF THIS. IT MOVES ME SO DEEEEEP.
@Darksoulsmx Es de Sigur Ros?
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! To think such majestic music could be inspired by Odin still. Did the All Father proud! Well done to all invovled!
@ezzylock
the cd is: Sigur Rós & Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson - Odin's Raven Magic - Live at the Barbican Hall
Sigur Ros, always amazing!!
the sigur ros site said it. it is no surprise that it has been delayed, most likely due to sr recording a new ablum. it will be released at some point.
I found this video whilst looking for a piece called Odin's Song. It's funny, you uploaded this on my birthday.....thanks.
its so good i could quite easily collapse in a heap of tears by the end of it.....makes me feel emotionally drained, but in the best possible sense of course.....well its hard to explain the feeling isnt it ? ? ........ There are no words as beautiful as perfect music like this.
@istra2009
It's absolutely amazing, and the fact that the "ðing pong" Instrument is made out of woodboards and blocks of cliffrocks..
I'm Icelandic myself and a big fan og Sigurrós, this instrumental masterpiece is probably one of the few things that I'm proudest of that has made it to "nation wide" community :)
One of the most beautiful songs in existence....
@ezzylock Its from a live performance album called 'odin's raven magic' with sigur ros and hilmar orn hilmarsson
I' can't just believe!!!!!! This and other sigur ros song's speaking with my soul directly
@Steb54 this hasn't been released on cd and they have no intention of doing so, however, there is a bootleg of it. Search around you might find it, if not PM me
A recording of this piece is available for free download on the Sigur Ros website, on the "media" page.
I just uploaded Odin Raven Magic Ch. 5 to youtube. It's the best chapter in my opinion, although I love ch. 3 as well!
It's available as a free download on their website
This is probably my fav tune from this but its hard to say for sure.
But if you listen to the commentary of Heima, the manager says that they really want to release it. They just have a little bit more editing on it.
Wooow, this is,.... MAGIC!!!
This was shown in Heima movie - it is a xylophone made of different stones found in nature - it was made by some artist whose name I forgot. But as I said, it's all in the movie... Excellent though.
brings back childhood memories. i loved to read all of the nordic mythology books in primary school. and other than that, the song is absolutely stunning to begin with. especially the instrument made out of rocks i think it was? it was feautured on the Heima film as well :)
Does anybody know the name of the strange but exceptional instrument they have played in this video?
Excellent definetively
This is SO beautiful!
I can't wait till they release it as a whole. Well...I hope they do :)
One of best song i'have heard
Gorgeous............
This is indeed beautiful.
@ben1782
Point was that they both can't see out of their right eye. I used blind as in 'can't see' so I think it still holds - if he ripped his eye out it stands to reason that he can't see with his right eye. The parallel was interesting to me, but I never held it to be historically accurate.
@11willf if you watch the Heima documentary, they made this stone marimba from pieces of sheet rock, accompanied by some dude who lives in the mountains and makes instruments out of natural materials.
best chapter of them all! Chapter 3! Apparently Jonsi (sigur ros singer) is blind in his right eye, just like Odin.
@ezzylock isn´t it "odin´s raven magic"? maybe you can find it as part of Sigur Rós´s music... at least i found it that way...
This is freaking brilliant.
@ezzylock Hilmar örn Hilmarsson is the main guy on this I assume it would be in his stuff.
I know what you mean. I'm hoping the decide to release it someday!
It's just wonderfull.
i'm waiting for the DVD. I believe it should be release this year.
Ten years later and we're still waiting :(
@@realroadrunnr not a DVD but the albums out on Cd/Vinyl and download in December......finally!
This is so awesome.
Ooooh I wanna see this live!! :)
@ezzylock It actually was released right after it first came out for free on sigur ros's website. But it was just a recording of this one time performance. You can DL a remastered version of it just google "victoryrosemusic odin" and it should be ur first result
The have gathered some rocks and put it togheter to a marimba. It's really cool!
Its going to be on the next album :)
Love
Wonderfull!!!!
just great
An adventure transcendent.
@Steb54 Would it still be classified as a marimba though, despite having stone keys? (I'm an actual marimba player and find this extremely intriguing.
such a discovery, amazing!!!
Sublime.
You can buy the Screaming Masterpiece cd..All Icelandic music and this is on there.
Oh it was totally a privilege to be there! Were you there at the concert?
oh my god it's fantastic!!!!!
chapter 3 is my favorite!
Hrafnagaldur (Odin's Raven Magic) pretty great cd
@ezzylock, i have this show in mp3 format. Try to find on torrents.
is the music a tiny bit out of syn with the video? Love it.
Rapturously joyful
haha so awesome to see the rock marimba in action!
anyone who enjoyed this ought to listen to Chapter 5 of Raven Magic, you can find it on grooveshark.
4:26 I'M IN HEAVEN
that was pretty cool
You can find a remastered version of the original concert recordings either as mp3 320 kbit/s or FLAC (lossless CD quality) here:

Odin Vather Alles!
-fuckig awesome-
thanks for posting this
los amo!
So I guess, that track experience an second youth right now.
GREAT
nice crescendo
demonoid or isohunt, both sites have the full cd
wrong. there is a mediafire link somewhere on the net im pretty sure.
@Steb54 I have it record, but in mp3.
what song from sigur ros is this
Gamelan music from Bali....
How did you get this footage of the concert?
It used to be a video on the Sigur Ros fan site 18 Seconds before sunrise about 15 years ago. they had a few videos I believe recorded at The Barbican. I have most of the movements on MP3 that I downloaded from the site years ago. But audio quality isn't that great. Thankfully the whole thing is to be released in December. If you want physical media id hurry as the limited vinyl sold out in about a day. Amazing music.
@@jurassicmarc77 That's great to hear, I might have to do that. The reason I asked is because I filmed that concert. Always wondered what happened to the footage after we handed it over to the band. Shame it was standard definition, but it should be 16:9, just not been stretched :) Amazing music!
nice musicians, but maybe they are that kind of artists who hates common people..people who does't think like them. i guess...
simply beautfiul... great song and sounds!!
wouahhhh !!
Ping. Lest we forget.
I can't breath
What chapter is it? please2 tell me
Nazurah Ibrahim Chapter 3
@WelfareChrist
...Odin wasn't blind in his right eye; he ripped it out himself. Bit of a difference there...
Damn
