Noted Icelandic scholar Sveinbjörn Egilsson served as the first rector of the school from its founding in Reykjavík in 1846.

Sveinbjörn lived his entire life in West Iceland.

Sveinbjörn is regarded with much respect and affection amongst Ásatrú.

Sveinbjörn can be heard performing Ásatrú marriage rites for Genesis and Paula P-Orridge ( now Alaura O ' Dell ) on Psychic TV's LP Live in Reykjavik and on the double LP entitled Those who do not.

In 1982 Sveinbjörn released an album, Eddukvæði ( Songs from The Poetic Edda ), in which he recites in rímur style 75 stanzas from Hávamál, Völuspá and Sigrdrífumál.

Additionally, former Psychic TV member David Tibet ( né David Michael Bunting ) released a CD of Sveinbjörn performing his own rímur and reciting the traditional Poetic Edda under the title Current 93 presents Sveinbjörn ' Edda in two editions through the now defunct record company World Serpent Distribution.

There are hundreds of these meters, counting variations ( Sveinbjörn Beinteinsson provides 450 variations in his Háttatal ), but they can be grouped in approximately ten families.

In the late twentieth century Sveinbjörn Beinteinsson was the best known rímur poet.

Sveinbjörn was born in Seltjarnarnes.

At the time, Svendsen had just finished his studies in Leipzig and encouraged Sveinbjörn to go and study music, either in Leipzig or Copenhagen.

Sveinbjörn went to Copenhagen, but later carried on to Leipzig where his teacher was Carl Reinecke.

Consequently, Sveinbjörn gained a far higher level of musical education than other musicians in Iceland at that time.

As the musical opportunities were limited in Iceland at the end of the 19th century, Sveinbjörn moved to Edinburgh.

Sveinbjörn also composed a considerable number of folk songs.
