Edda Karin Hjartardóttir Magnason (born 22 August 1984) is a Swedish singer-songwriter, musician and film actress of Icelandic descent. She has released three albums, ''Edda Magnason'' (2010), ''Goods'' (2011), and ''Woman Travels Alone'' (2014). She has also released a soundtrack album, ''Monica Z - Musiken från filmen'' (2013) and made her debut as an actress in the film ''Waltz for Monica'', playing the leading role of Monica Zetterlund. == Early life == Magnason grew up in a tiny village near Ystad, Sweden, but her father is, as her name suggests, from Iceland. One of seven children, she began composing her own pieces on the piano early on in childhood, dreaming of becoming a classical concert pianist.〔(Short biography ''Caprice Records'' )〕 When she was 16 she began writing electronic song-based pop music with English lyrics that she made into demo (music) recordings. Some of these songs were used on the soundtrack of the Swedish film ''Hot Dog''〔(''Hot Dog'': IMDB list of full cast )〕 (2002). In 2004, she went on to study music composition in Gotland, and then moved back to Malmö to take an active part in the music scene there. She has thus developed a uniquely personal, eclectic music style which has been described as "a seamless blend of jazz, pop, folk song and classical music,"〔 with a vocal style reminiscent of Björk or Kate Bush. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edda Magnason」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
