Beaty Biodiversity Museum • The University of British Columbia • Vancouver, Canada

Mark Takeshi McGregor, Flutist

Beaty_JanNocturnal_website-360x203This first Pacific Rim solo flute concert is a co-presentation between Redshift Music Society and the Beaty Museum, and will be a part of the Museum’s “Nocturnal” series, taking place during its opening extended hours. The Beaty Museum is a striking space, boasting a 25-metre skeleton of a blue whale, suspended above the ramp that leads down to the main collections (the performance will, in fact, take place immediately beneath the whales tail — you can see images of the musuem HERE, if you’re curious). Each piece on the programme reflects on one of the museum’s permanent exhibits:

Pedro Alvarez – De Mares Imaginados (for the museum’s fish & marine invertebrate collection);
Kaiyi Kao – Jingzhe (for the insects collection);
Ellen Lindquist – Nakoda (for the tetrapods – mammals collection);
Nova Pon – Wrenegade (for the tetrapods – birds collection);
Phil Brownlee – Harakeke (for the herbarium collection);
Graham Flett – Stratus and Shale (for the museum’s fossils collection).

Huskonsertene i Rissa presenterer:
Marianne Baudouin Lie, ‘Med cello’n og stemmen’

Marianne Baudouin Lie

‘Med cello’n og stemmen’ er en spennende og unik konsert hvor Spellemann-nominerte cellisten Marianne Baudouin Lie spiller verk for solocello og sin egen stemme. Cello’n er det instrumentet som kanskje ligger nærmest stemmen, og det er komponert noen få verk som bruker dette, men det at det er cellistens egen stemme som brukes til fargeleggingen er uvanlig men skaper en uventet nærhet i uttrykket.

På programmet står verker av Eirik Hegdal (‘concertino per violoncello et voce’), Lene Grenager (en del av ‘Ulvedrømmer’), Ellen Lindquist (‘Many Thousands Gone’) og Maja Solveig Kjelstrup Ratkje (‘To F’). “Many Thousands Gone” av Ellen Lindquist er et bestillingsverk til Marianne (støttet av det Norsk Komponistfond), og i kveld er verdenspremieren. Vevd inn i stykket er både norske og amerikanske folkeviser. “Many Thousands Gone” er Lindquists repons på flykningkrisen.

Denne konserten er del av Norsk komponistforeningens 100-år jubileum, og Kulturuka i Indre Fosen! Konserten er støttet av Norsk Komponistforeningen.

nyMusikk Trondheim’s Julekonsert

Du kommer ikke i den rette julestemninga uten nyMusikk Trondheims årlige julekonsert. I år er tekst i sentrum og vi har samarbeidet med Norsk Forfattersentrum om å presentere en lokal forfatters egen tolkning av jula, akkompagnert av radikal og sjangeroverskridende samtidsmusikk.

Willy Walder er årets tekstforfatter. Han er dramatiker, født og oppvokst i Bergen, og har bodd i Trondheim de siste 20 årene. Hans dramatiske tekster er preget av et kraftfullt poetisk språk i et egentlig nakent eller handlingstomt scenerom. Handlingene eller bevegelsene til aktørene i tekstene er drevet frem av språket selv og kun i liten grad av sceneanvisninger. Scenerommet er redusert til det minimale, mens språket er energisk, og krever til slutt at publikum reflekterer over seg selv. Et særlig drag ved tekstene er bruken av tegnsetting, dvs han bruker kun punktum. På den måten bryter han setningene i stykker og fremstiller ordene i nye sammenhenger. Ordenes vanlige bruk og mening møter motstand, og klang og rytme får en viktig plass. (wikipedia)

Premiere: Birds

Cecilia Ekman and Roger Johansson will premiere a new piece of mine titled ‘Vingarna breddas’ (‘The wings spread’) for the latest addition to Cecilia’s ongoing concert project titled ‘Birds’. This will be the first time that she has commissioned new works as part of this project; there will also be a new work by her duo partner Roger Johansson on the concert. Slides of Hans Falklind‘s remarkable bird photographs play a central part in the creation process and in the performance.

‘Vingarna breddas’ (as well as this project overall) focuses on bird protection work, in particular for the Eurasian Skylark. Collaborators for Birds include Sveriges Ornitologiska Förening and BirdLife International. ‘Vingarna breddas’ is based on the poem ‘Preludium’ by Tomas Tranströmer.

Gotland, Sweden: tour (see below for dates and locations)

Gotlands Blåsarkvintett (Gotland Woodwind Quintet)

More info

Gotlands Blåsarkvintett och dansarna Helena Högberg och Kajsa Franke gör en bygdegårdsturné på Gotland.
Gotlandsmusikens kvintett gör varje år en turné i bygdegårdarna runt om på Gotland. De brukar bjuda med sig någon gäst som gärna får ha en annan inriktning än musik. Tidigare år har de samarbetat med Jan Brunius (konst), John Andersson (lyrik) och Svante Hedin (foto). Även gitarristen Krister Dahlström har varit med ett par år. I år är det dansens tur och därför tillfrågades Helena Högberg som till vardags är ledare för Gotlands Dansutbildningar och som också har samarbetat med Gotlands Blåsarkvintett många gånger under åren. Helena tände till ordentligt på förslaget och kommer att som första dansare (?) med bägge höftlederna utbytta att framföra ett solostycke ihop med musik. Hennes pedagogkollega på dansutbildningar, Kajsa Franke, medföljer också och medverkar som solodansare.
