Having played the guitar in rock and improvising groups, the eclectic influences of Norway’s fearless composer Øyvind Torvund range from Baroque and folk music to noise, electronics, and popular culture. In this 40-minute work (originally written as a site-specific work for the Kunstnernes Hus in Oslo), Torvund invites the audience to move freely throughout various spaces across the venue: “You can think of the piece as a multilayered festival in itself where various forms of expressions and energies take place at the same time." Players from the BBC SSO perform alongside percussionist Jennifer Torrence, saxophonist Kjetil Møster, and Jørgen Træen on synth and electric guitar.
