Andras Atlason at Maggies

Andras Atlason is a Brazilian-Faroese composer and multi-instrumentalist.

Paired with his parallel formation as a cultural anthropologist, his torn
identity between North and South has helped him carve out a musical voice which reflects upon human identity in the diversity of its resonant expression.

Andras has written music since his teenage years, when he released his first album of piano compositions (Ut, 2011) and won a worldwide
arrangement contest promoted by Atlanta-based heavy metal band
Mastodon, reaching over 70,000 views with his rendition on YouTube.
He has had private piano education with Davi Sartori and Olga Kiun,
and his composition teachers were Samuel Andreyev, Harry Crowl, and, most recently, Svend Hvidtfelt Nielsen.

As a notated music composer, his pieces have been performed by
artists such as the Ensemble EKA (FO) and Det Fynske Kammerkor (DK). In 2023, he has been a prize winner at the KORAL23 composition contest (Odense, Denmark) for his choral piece Den blinde, røde orm.

Andras has a separate output of prog rock and pop music under the
pen name Andras Atlason. He released his first full-length rock solo album, Atlantis (TUTL Records), in 2022, followed by concerts in Brazil and in Europe. In 2023 and 2024, two new singles, (Við ótta og bivan and Uníssono) were released.
Besides composing, Andras Ellendersen works as a music producer,
private educator and soloist.
