Effluvia(2015)
Programme note
"Arcana" is a piece that from the start was composed
with the help of a turn with tarot cards. The aim was
that all the cards (which all have a very distinct
character) would be translated to concrete musical
expressions that could in turn be layered on each
other. But as the piece started taking shape it gradually
started to focus more on the connection between
the expressions rather than the contrasts that
was from the beginning intended to be created.
Serenata (2016)
For solo piano
durata: 5'30
Composed in 2012/2013.
First performed on 20th of april by Pianist
Kristine Scholz at the ljudOljud festival.
Intermezzo (2013)
Programme note:
While i was writing Serenata, for solo accordion, i was very influenced by a kind of music that is meant to be performed in smaller spaces. Music heard in a living
room, in a small concert hall. Simply put;
"chamber music". what i with this piece wanted to convey was a kind of closeness to the instrument. As if a close friend would sit right in front of you and play. Hence the title "Serenata".
For solo accordion
durata: 4'30''
