What makes a modern composer?

"Arne Nordheim was some of the first 'modern' music I was exposed to", says Ørjan Matre, Kode's resident composer in 2023.

In collaboration with Matre, we have put together a program that will highlight his own artistry, where some of his own works are combined with works by other Norwegian composers from the last decades of Norwegian music history.

Program:

Ørjan Matre: Piano trio (2016)
Synne Skouen: Hils Domitila! for solo piano (1980)
Arne Nordheim: Duplex for fiolin og cello (1991)
Ørjan Matre: Notturno (2019)
Rolf Gupta: Jordens vuggesang (2019)

Featuring (pictured below in order):

Melina Mandozzi, violin
Martha Berit Belt, piano
Pierre Doumenge, cello

Curator Monica Jangaard leads the conversation.
