Summer's play
Frantisek Veselka and Milena Dratvova are two Czech musicians that influenced the music scene of Stavanger significantly during the 70-80-90's.
"Summer's Play" is dedicated to them.
ACD 4972 is volume III of the cycle "New Norwegian Violin Music", in itself a major achievment from these two artists.
Genesis
GENESIS for string quartet (1982) is one of my early pieces which still is performed quite a lot.
On this recording "1-2-3- happy happy happy", Stavanger Samtidsensemble are presenting the piece together with music of Jon Øivind Ness, Asbjørn Schaathun, Ketil Hvoslef and Alfred Janson.
Etyder over tiden
Barratt-Dues Juniororkester plays the 7-movement piece "Etyder over tiden" (Etudes on Time).
Music that is well suited to young orchestras.
