Per Nørgård: Whirl’s World
In this concert, Ensemble MidtVest links the established and new, underlining that the present "established" was once innovative. J.S. Bach, a Baroque synthetizer, experimented with forms. Similarly, 91-year-old Danish composer Per Nørgård blends avant-garde with classical elements for a fusion of listener-friendly and experimental contemporary classical music. While Bach shaped classical music's currents as its most influential composer, Nørgård's "Whirl’s World" takes "currents" literally. Ensemble MidtVest marries these pieces with improvisation, bringing classical experimentation to the present.
