About us
OPIA Community is a place to inspire, and be inspired.
Born out of Ólafur Arnalds’ desire to create an environment that encourages experiments and collaboration, OPIA is focused on strengthening the scene where modern-classical music meets electronic and beyond.
A three-pronged entity, OPIA is a travelling festival series, a record label and a community hub fostering a variety of conversations and initiatives. These include a magazine, community compilations, regular workshops, composer challenges, and more.
OPIA is proud to be partnered with Decca/UMG, Wise Music/Bosworth Gmbh, von der haardt and Keychange.
