What makes Tvisongur an acoustic wonder?

            Tvisongur is a site-specific sound sculpture located on a mountainside above the town of Seydisfjordur in Iceland.

             Created by German artist Lukas Kuhne, it looks like five different-sized mushrooms that are interconnected with door openings. But in fact, the work is made of concrete, and consists of five interconnected domes. It was built to pay homage to the Icelandic music tradition. Specifically, each dome is designed to amplify resonance distinct from each other and, as a result, the overall space echoes the Icelandic musical tradition of five-tone harmony.

            According to Lukas Kuhne, the work is dedicated to space and frequency. Anybody who wishes to enjoy the natural five-tone harmony is welcome, as the structure is always open to the public.
