ENGLISH BELLOW

Komponisten/saxofonisten Calum Builders (AU) værker frembringer æteriske bølger af lyd, der skyller ind over lytteren. Med projekter, der spænder fra solokoncerter med saxofon og pibeorgel til at lede et af hans eklektiske orkestre, væver hans kompositioner sig mellem orkestrerede elementer, der "skaber en symbiose af overvældende skønhed og rumlende forstyrrelser”. I denne koncert får Calum selskab af den danske lydkunstner Simon Mariegaard, når de dykker ned i Builders selvbyggede rekonstruerede pibeorgel. Det ‘Reconstructed Pipe Organ’ er et instrument, der er blevet befriet fra fangenskab - et nedbrudt pibeorgel, der er reddet fra en gammel kirke og bragt ned fra balkonen for at blive samlet og spredt ud i rummet. Med et bestemt stemningssystem, der er komponeret specielt til Brønshøj Vandtårn, inviterer denne komposition publikum til at opleve en fordybelse i et fjernt instrument, der igen er bragt tæt på. 

ENGLISH 

The works of composer and saxophonist Calum Builder (AU) call forth immense waves of sound that wash afresh over the listener. With projects that range from solo concerts with saxophone and pipe organ, to leading one of his eclectic orchestras, his compositions weave between orchestrated elements that “bring about a symbiosis of overflowing beauty and rumbling disturbances”. In this concert, Calum is joined by Danish sound artist Simon Mariegaard as they delve into Builder’s self-built Reconstructed Pipe Organ. The Reconstructed Pipe Organ is an instrument set free from captivity — a dismantled pipe organ, rescued from an old church and brought down from the balcony to be reassembled and spread out amongst the room. With a specific tuning system composed especially for Brønshøj Vandtårn, this composition invites the audience to experience an immersion into a distant instrument that is brought close once again.
