Björk Sets Physical Release for 'Cornucopia: Live' Concert Film

Björk’s Cornucopia will complete the journey from concert halls to arthouse cinemas to home stereos as the singer has announced a physical release for her concert film.

Following its big screen release earlier this year, Björk revealed that Cornucopia: Live will arrive on October 24 in a variety of formats, including a Blu-ray of the concert film, plus CD and vinyl editions of the audio.

“I am so thrilled to share the film for my concert Cornucopia with you,” the singer said in a statement. “This has been a long journey with hundreds of people helping. I am so beyond enormously grateful to every single one of them. I feel the modern concert film is a matriarchally friendly construct, welcomed in the current climate — where female musicians can share their worlds uncorrupted.”

Björk began herconcert trek at New York City’s the Shed in May 2019. Following some pandemic-related pauses, she performed 45 visual concerts across four continents by 2023. During the concerts, Björk’s team projected visuals onto dozens of rotating curtains, creating a digitally animated experience, and also incorporated instruments like a magnetic harp, an aluphone (a percussion instrument made of aluminum bells), a circular flute, and a custom reverb chamber. ShetoldRolling Stonein 2023that the concert tour was “the most ambitious project I’ve traveled with.”

With the help of artisans and animators, the concert experience was transformed into a 100-minute film using visual storytelling to breathe life into her hit singles and other tracks from the Icelandicartist’s 2017 albumUtopiaand 2022 albumFossora, her most recent LP.

The concert film was released to theaters this past May, with the physical release due in October; Cornucopia: Live is available to preorder now on Blu-ray, DVD, CD, and 3-LP vinyl.
