works
When I work, it can be through one or several of these activities:
- composing acoustic music with traditional notation / graphic notation
- composing electroacoustic music
- writing lyrics/libretto
- crafting and creating visual elements: figures, sculptures, paintings, video, scenography
- developing movement scores for bodies, puppets or objects
Currently working on:
- New work for Bb and Bass clarinet, electric guitar, percussion, piano and cello, with flat puppet-theatre, for asamisimasa
- New work for harp, percussion and soprano, for Permatrio (Sigrun Rogstad Gomnæs, Sunniva Rødland, Elisabeth Holmertz)
- New work for accordeon and saxophone with large-size puppet, for Akse (Maren Sofie Nyland Johansen and Eivind Holmboe Leifsen)
- Collection of chamber works with puppets, Puppet Etudes (working title)
- Pre-project First Time with visual theatre company The Krumple
Don't hesitate to contact me about scores.
