Competition: Five deluxe pressings of Silfra to be won

 

We are giving away five deluxe heavyweight vinyl LPs of Silfra, the delicious new album by experimental pianist-composer Hauschka and internationally renowned concert violinist Hilary Hahn. Each comes with a beautiful poster, plus a free download of the album (in case you don't carry a record player around with you!). For a chance to win, just answer two simple questions about theartsdesk's coverage of Hauschka and Hahn.
