Tuning Music
any
ensemble of at least three musicians
5-10 min
and up (no max length)
Tuning
music is one of several pieces composed for an unspecified ensemble. Working
with ensembles and musicians at the Academy of Music in Malm I saw the need
for making it possible for extremely diverse constellations of musicians to
play together. More often than not it is a common interest in new music that
makes musicians want to play contemporary music rather than a specific ensemble
type.
I
consequently composed a series of open pieces.
This piece
is exploring the smallest possible musical element: one note. It is moving
through the insides of it .
First
performance by Stockholm Saxophone quartet in Stockholm, November 2004.
