English

Moto immoto
for organ

Passing is a small virtuous piece composed for accordion in 2011 and dedicated to Bjarke Mogensen. This version for organ was written in 2012.
Quickly repeating notes, small motives and fast patterns, with both hands in the same register, all in a simple sequence of 3 major thirds which represents all the harmonics in the piece.
The piece counts in 5/4 with music in 9/16, 7/32, 5/32, 6/16, 6/8, 15/32, 12/32, 4/8 and ends with an outro in 3/8, 2/8 & 3/16.

A musical technique 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.

I've developed the technique by combining different musical methods used in older works.

1. Use of multiple layers of music, which have been a important part of my music since 2000.
2. A simple repeating sequence of chords as the only harmonic material in the piece, which creates a music on the move, in a never ending modulation from the start to the end. Used in works like Haiku (1999), In liquid... (violin and piano) (2003) and Image balancantes (2004).
3. A 'rhythm across harmony' principle, where different together sounding motives are played in individual tempos across the rhythm of the chords.

First used in Smoke (2000) and developed as a technique in Liebestraum (Liszt arrangement from 2005), and later used in 8 momenti mobile (2008) before it finally evolved to the technique used in Concerto in tempi from 2010 and forward.

En teknik hvor forskellige lag af musik i hver deres tempo, metrik og musikalsk stil 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.
