Description

Døre kl 19 / Koncert kl 20

Med afsæt i deres delte kærlighed for følelsesladede harmonier og hurtige arpeggioer, er de to danske elektroniske musikere og komponister Astrid Sonne og Minais B gået sammen om et stykke for computer, viola, orgel og vokal. Age of Levelling er skabt eksklusivt til denne aften på ALICE i november. 

De to danske stjerneskud på den danske eksperimental-himmel, Astrid Sonne og Minais B, er gået sammen om et nyt stykke for computer, viola, orgel og vokal. Med afsæt i deres delte kærlighed for følelsesladede harmonier og hurtige arpeggioer, væver de to komponister deres kunstneriske praksisser sammen i en konstant musikalsk udveksling. Age of Levelling er skabt eksklusivt til denne aften på ALICE.

Astrid Sonne

Astrid Sonne er en dansk komponist og viola-spiller, som de seneste år for alvor har vakt opsigt på både den danske og den europæiske eksperimentalscene. Med sin baggrund i klassisk musik, afsøger Sonne grænselandet mellem det organiske og det elektroniske. Hendes store, åbne kompositioner rummer alt fra synthesizere til bratsch-sekvenser og vokal-samplinger og trækker på skøn europæisk kortradition såvel som trance og kakofoniske eksperimenter. Som ingen anden formår Sonne at udtrykke sårbare emotionelle stadier i minimalistiske og statiske soundscapes.

Sonnes debutalbum “Human Lines”, som udkom på det toneangivende danske pladeselskab Escho i 2018, blev bl.a. fremhævet i Fact Magazine som “et af de mest storslåede eksperimentelle album, du kommer til at høre i år”. Opfølgeren “Cliodynamics” (2019) udtrykker i endnu højere grad Sonnes musikalske nysgerrighed og hendes konstante udforskning af den elektronisk-organiske dualisme.

Astrid Sonne har præsenteret sine værker på bl.a. Atonal i Berlin i 2018, på Rewire Festival 2019 og på Roskilde Festival to år i træk. På ALICE havde vi bl.a. glæde af hende ved sidste års Gong Tomorrow Festival, hvor hun opførte værket “Ephemeral” med live kor, bratsch og modularsynth.  

Minais B

Bag aliaset Minais B står den København-baserede komponist Villads Klint, som til daglig er en del af den elektroniske trio KhalilH2OP og medstifter af den kunstneriske platform Anyines. I sit soloprojekt væver Klint kontrastfyldte musikalske ideer sammen til eventyrlystne kompositioner, hvor bl.a. orgel, synths, danske salmer og elektroniske arpeggioer udgør et samlende og forfriskende lydbillede. 

In English:

On this night at ALICE, the two Danish composers Astrid Sonne and Minais B will present a new piece for computer, viola, organ and voice. In “Age og Levelling” they weave together their artistic practices, taking its outset in an ongoing musical interchange with a common interest in harmonies as a means of expression. 

Astrid Sonne

Astrid Sonne is a highly acclaimed Copenhagen-based composer and viola player. With a background in classical music, she opens up an electronic space to channel different perceptions of sensory and emotional states of being through open, melodic compositions. Key performances and commissions to date include Berlin Atonal 2018, where she performed her work ‘Ephemeral’ with a choir; and ‘Cycles of Lost and Found’ for strings and electronics, premiered at Rewire Festival 2019. 

Sonne released her debut album Human Lines in 2018 and most recently “Cliodynamics” in October 2019, both via the Copenhagen based label Escho. The two releases illustrate the curiosity of Astrid Sonne and bring forward the distinct acoustic/electronic dualism of her creative approach, resulting in a crystal clear musical aesthetic. 

Minais B

Minais B is the moniker of Copenhagen-based composer Villads Klint also part of the trio KhalilH2OP and co-founder of the platform Anyines. In his solo project, the composer weaves contrasting musical ideas together into adventurous narratives utilizing organs and synthesizers, danish hymns and arpeggio patterns. At live performances this takes shape with Klint combining the laptop with live organ and synthesizers, steering the project of Minais B in a new, melodic direction.
