Trumpet | Baritone sax | Clarinet | Cello | Piano | Percussion
ca 10 min
Trumpet, baritone sax, clarinet, cello, piano, percussion and tape
Piece in five sections which each reflects a different trait in postmodern art:
1. Bricolage (using whatever happens to be available) - the percussionist is using available stuff.
2. Simplification - simplified and minimalistic using only a few notes and durations.
3. Collage - short contrasting musical fragments with references to different styles.
4. Appropriation (taking possession) - borrowing from older styles of music.
5. Performance - performing words and very short sections with pop references.
Dedicated to: Nordic Fusion 6
Commissioned by: Nordic Fusion 6
First performance: Tromsø, KontAk-festivalen, 2010-03-05
Peter Bjuhr Composer
Here I publish information of the music I've written. I also blog about my projects and thoughts about music in general.
I am a contemporary classical composer and compose music for classical musicians, but as you can see from my worklist I've also done other things - including live electronics, electroacoustic music (eam) and music for other types of ensembles (e.g. a jazz trio).
My works have been performed globally, including Europe, Asia and North America.
