“I believe that every composer should also remain a performer, and every performer ought to compose.” Agata Zubel /// “I work primarily with people, not with instruments or paper” Therese Birkelund Ulvo
Lørdag 15. oktober kl. 18.00 NB! NY TID!
Sardinen, USF Verftet
Velkommen til et møte med to av de mest spennende unge navnene i polsk og norsk kunstmusikk akkurat nå. Agata Zubel og Therese Birkelund Ulvo er begge både komponister og utøvere, og dette gir musikken deres en sanselig, ofte improvisatorisk karakter. Sangeren og komponisten Agata Zubel vant Fryderyk-prisen (den polske Spellemanns- eller Grammyprisen) i 2010 med platen Cascando – tittelverket fremfører hun på Sardinen. Therese Birkelund Ulvo komponerer i tett dialog med utøvere og er opptatt av hvordan denne utvekslingen av ideer med andre musikere kan utfylle det skrevne partituret.
Program:
Therese Birkelund Ulvo – Bubbles
Therese Birkelund Ulvo – Curious Endorsement
Agata Zubel – Cascando
Agata Zubel – Suita (perkusjonstrio)

Curious Endorsement was commissioned by Eira B. Foss for her master’s exam in violin at NTNU, department of Music in Trondheim. During her studies Eira started pondering over composers relations to the audience; is it a goal to make music accessible to the general audience, or is this of lesser importance? These issues have inspired me to pick up two books: This is Your Brain on Music (Daniel J. Levitin), and Music and Memory (Robert Snyder). With these books in mind, it was impossible not to reconsider my views on musical material and organization.
