CAPUT is a music ensemble founded in 1987 by young Icelandic artists. It began as a small chamber group but grew rapidly to a sinfonietta with up to 18 players. The size of CAPUT has always been flexible. Each member can stand out as a soloist and the ensemble plays as duos, trios, quartets, octets etc.

CAPUT has premiered many Icelandic and European works and has given concerts across Europe and North America.
