Program note
Slow river
for vibraphone, guitar and cello
Slow river was written for the Ordlyd ensemble.
A short motif in the cello undergoes slow changes throughout the movement, with various accompaniments figures in vibraphone and guitar. I use a musical technique I've called mobile where different layers of music in individual tempos, metric and musical style are combined in a simple pattern of chords, which slowly modulate through all the keys in a newer ending sequence, creating a music with no or very few dissonances.
Duration 13-14 min.

In Danish
Slow river
for vibrafon, guitar og cello
Slow river er skrevet til Ordlyd ensemblet.
En kort motiv i celloen undergår langsom forandring gennem hele satsen, med forskellige akkompagnementsfigurer i vibrafon og guitar. Jeg benytter en teknik som jeg kalder Mobile, hvor forskellige lag af musik i hver deres tempo kombineres i et simpelt mønster af akkorder, som langsomt modulere igennem alle tonearter i en uendelig sekvens, skabende en musik med ingen eller ganske få dissonanser.
Varighed 13-14 min.
