moonpain.nu (25.02.09)
Some years ago the composer Klaus Ib Jørgensen began composing a series of works based on the poetry of Fernando Pessoa. From its origins as a traditional song cycle for solo voice and instrumental ensemble, it grew into an extensive project with extra contributions from invited musicians, sound artists and poets.
All the threads have finally been gathered and the 'moonpain' project will officially be launched on Wednesday afternoon 15:30 at the PH Café, Copenhagen. The project is centered around a specially created website where visitors can, amongst other things, listen to Klaus' Moon-pain cycle (performed by the REMIX Ensemble under Paul Hillier), listen to and download an extensive essay on the life and work of Fernando Pessoa as well as follow Pessoa's footsteps through Lisbon in an audio walk created for the project. Visit the site at moonpain.nu

Some of the material from my Lydfabet project will be used as part of the Metroplex Soundscape Project initiated by Carl Emil Carlsen and Jakob Goetz. Here vistors can themselves enter into exploration of the sound materials by navigating through an abstract virtual 'city' in which the basic sound blocks are contained. The idea is to provide a new basis for web-based sound experience.
tpk darlings - pecha kucha for trio trafique received its premiere in Winterthur at Theater am Gleis on the 1st of November with a follow up performance in Basel at Gare du Nord on the 3rd of November 2008.
A performance in Zurich at theater Rigiblick was to have followed on the 18th of January 2009 but has been postponed due to illness.
Kill your darlings is the title for a series of concerts by Trio Trafique to be held in Switzerland in during October/ November 2008. The concept (initiated by Michel Heisch) is centered around Oscar Wilde's claim that "One hates that which one loves" (and vice versa) in this case taking a strong polarisation between the "sacrosankt" avant-garde and "unholy" popular culture as a point of departure. Since DJs have no problem in remixing works as radical as those of Brian Ferneyhough then why not also a reverse cultural stance in which "classical" ensembles embrace DJ culture? Amongst the composers to be presented in the program are Michael Heisch, Alvin Lucier, Kaspar Ewald, Michael Bürgin, Rudiger Meyer, an installation by Felix Profos as well as interludes provided by a DJ.
