PRIS 150 (ordinær)/120 (student/honnør/BT-kort) , Bilettservice 


Eikanger-Bjørsvik Musikklag :

Ørjan Matre “Paradoxical Leftovers”, 19’

Luciano Berio  “Sequensa”, 6’. Med Solist Marius Hesby,  trombone 

Elgar Howarth “Ascendit in Coeli”, 10’

Jan Sanström  “Canto Stella Mancha”, 15’ Med Solist Marius Hesby, trombone

John Cage “Music for Wind Instruments”, 9’

John Cage,  4’ 33”


Artistic director says 

What better to stir-up revolutionary angst than a brass band performance of John Cage’s “4’ 33”?  All that gleaming metal, shining in resolute silence against the splendid backdrop of Grand Selskapslokale.  Cough, anyone?

Innovasjon og endring er et spørsmål om performance-in-context. Det vil si, innovative hendelser er konsekvensen av diskurser formet i en kulturell livssfære transportert inn i et annen. Eikanger-Bjørsvik ensembelet, det mestvinnende brassbandet i Norge, har de siste årene tatt en plass i festivaler som aldri før har vært prioritert korps. Årsaken åpenbares i spillelisten. Matres “Paradoxical Leftovers” består av en kryssing og brytninger med det tradisjonelle konkuranseformatet. Verket består av seks korte satser som kan spilles i en hvilken som helst rekkefølge med ideen om at det musikalske materialet skal flyte fritt på tvers av satsinndelingen. 

Eikanger-Bjørsvik, one of the most celebrated brass band in Norway, is this year making its first appearance at the Borealis festival. 

 

19:00-20:00 

Brainer interactions

Brainer   “Work Songs”, 30’ :

   “3 Birdie Songs”

   “This is It”

    “Set Filler”

    “Toolbox Song”


Artistic director says 

Imagine Monty Python with OCD (Tvangslidelse, to you Norwegians), and before your very eyes, Brainer will appear.  When they’re not organising sound to fit their own bizarre take on the world, these three break out into spontaneous, informal and entirely random comedy triple-act performances.  Keep your eyes and ears open.    

Brainer interactions betyr rett og slett at de vil interagere. Med Eikanger-Bjørsvik, med publikum og med hverandre (Cimeon Ellerton, Luke Fraser and Simon Katan). Tekstene de selv har sendt meg om hva de skal gjøre må nesten stå slik de er,  på engelsk : Brainer Presents “Strictly-cum-Defiancing - Aerobic Agitprop in Protest against Protest”. All are invited to partake in this strictly compulsory event.’ 

 

“Work songs” : 

Simply, “This is It” is just that, that is this that it is (it is!) A fantasia concertante in and with too many movements and not enough words, for A4 paper and three office drones. “Set Filler” explores the instant when words fail. Hopefully mics, projection and gimp masks will not. “Toolbox Song” hammers out the results of a recent residency spent in collaboration with the newly-reformed Village People at Darmstadt Summer School, and truly nails it (if they don’t screw it up.) Genuinely wrenching, but with a spanner or two in the works. All to be framed by “three Birdie Songs”. Not at all cheep, and not for the easily offended.

Brainer is a London based composer’s collective, writing and collaborating in a variety of ways - from performance of individually written pieces to co-devising from scratch. The group explores a world of sound, gesture, technology and staging to describe hybrid works that are occasionally funny, often odd and always exacting. Formed in 2008 by Cimeon Ellerton, Luke Fraser and Simon Katan.
