Photo: Oystein Jevanord to the left. "Melting Together" means share something and is the meelting between two important musicians and artist who feel that they share something they called a lyrical basic sound and a mutual musical sympathy. In their first collaboration, they want to challenge each other´s musical expressions. The concert will be presented as a performance with Petter Nils Molvaer & Magne Furuholmen as the performers and as the two voices of the pieces of music, the mainly instruments would be Piano and Trumpet (Molvaer´s instrument),with which they will enhace the contrast and armonies between the two. In addition, Furuholmen will be using his own voice as a solo instrument for the first time throughout this concert, the basic idea behind the Winterarts Festival´s "Frozen Waterfall Concert" will be more explored than ever, and used in a more radical way than ever. The aim is to make a concert where the music influences: The scenography and vice versa, where the performs finds its form in the interaction with surrondings. The scenography is a collaboration between the ice sculpture group "MINUS" & Furuholmen, Molvaer. Their wish is to approach as far away as possible from often used idea of nature/mith/mystic and a sweet contrast to the romantic characters of the area. The concert will be performed in the dark of the night; Where lighting and video projection will be important elements. Sounds will be recorded during the concert and re-sampled in real time, providing unforeseen possibilities, and forming ambient soundscaper for solo voices. (Photo: Petter Nils Molvaver) |
