Song Circus & Oslo Sinfonietta with world premiere at the Ultima Festival

On September 7th, Song Circus premiered Landscape with Figures II, composed for us and the Oslo Sinfonietta by Ruben Sverre Gjertsen. The concert was performed at Dansens Hus in Oslo during the Ultima Festival. Here you can see pictures from the concert. The photographer is Henrik Beck.

Ruben Sverre Gjertsen has already made a name for himself internationally with several prestigious commissions. His works are characterized by a virtuosity on a micro level that twists expectations of how instruments and ensembles can sound. In his new work, Landscape with Figures II, the space is utilized in various ways, with musicians and singers placed around the audience, and electroacoustic sound distributed over a large speaker setup that fills the room and creates a three-dimensional landscape.
