==Desciption, electronic part==
The electronic part consist of four mono-delays<br/>
The instrument should be amplified to be mixed with the 4 delays. It is important that the dynamic of each delay is equal, or only a little below the dynamic of the instrument including the amplification of the instrument. This often means that the delays should be as loud as possible without getting feedback.

'''Entity'''
''Entity'' is a piece for solo violin written to Christine Pryn. There is also a version for solo viola and solo cello, and all three versions can be performed with or without electronic.<br/>
The title means being, something that has an existence – a reality, and here I am thinking of a musical entity, that lives by itself by its own laws and purpose.
The piece is in two parts:<br/>
The first part starts with a theme with three tones with double stops, which is used almost like a passacaglia although the first part. The theme with the three tones is gradually displaced laying itself on top of each other in more and more layers as a kind of poly-voiced canon, while the piece gradually grow to a culmination before the second part.<br/>
The second part is saturated by a rhythmical obstinate over the strings of the violin, as a sort of baroque music which is slowly being distorted by glissandos and ends with a long glide to the top register.<br/>
The electronic part is relatively simple. It contains four delays, which delays the music with 1.3, 2.1, 3.4 and 5.5 seconds, distributed in the speakers.

'''Entity'''
''Entity'' er et værk for soloviolin, skrevet til Christine Pryn. Det kan opføres med eller uden elektronik. Titlen betyder væsen, noget der har eksistens – realitet, og her tænker jeg i høj grad et musikalsk væsen der lever i sig selv efter egne love og mål.<br/>
Værket er i to dele i hvert deres beslægtede musikalske rum. Første del starter med et tema på tre toner i dobbeltgreb, som nærmest udgør en passacaglia igennem hele første del. Temaet på de tre toner lægger sig efterhånden forskudt oven på sig selv i flere og flere lag som en slags flerstemmig kanon, imens værket vokser op til en kulmination før anden del. Denne del er gennemsyret af et rytmisk ostinat henover strengene på violinen, som en art barokmusik der langsomt forvitres af glissandoer.<br/>
Den elektroniske del er relativ enkel, og består af fire ”delays” der forsinker musikken med henholdsvis 1.3, 2.1, 3.4 og 5.5 sekunder, panoreret rundt i højtalerne.

It is important that the dynamic of each delay is equal, or only a little below the dynamic of the instrument including the amplification of the instrument. This often means that the delays should be as loud as possible without getting feedback.

Entity

Entity is a piece for solo violin written to Christine Pryn. There is also a version for solo viola and solo cello, and all three versions can be performed with or without electronic.
The title means being, something that has an existence – a reality, and here I am thinking of a musical entity, that lives by itself by its own laws and purpose.

The piece is in two parts:
The first part starts with a theme with three tones with double stops, which is used almost like a passacaglia although the first part. The theme with the three tones is gradually displaced laying itself on top of each other in more and more layers as a kind of poly-voiced canon, while the piece gradually grow to a culmination before the second part.
The second part is saturated by a rhythmical obstinate over the strings of the violin, as a sort of baroque music which is slowly being distorted by glissandos and ends with a long glide to the top register.
The electronic part is relatively simple. It contains four delays, which delays the music with 1.3, 2.1, 3.4 and 5.5 seconds, distributed in the speakers.
