Felafantasi premier
Looking forward to the Bristol Ensemble premiering my new piece <Felafantasi> at 1904 Arts Club, Bristol on Friday 24th May 2024, 1900.
It´s a string quintet inspired by the sound and playing techniques of the Harding fele (Norwegian folk fiddle), an instrument I got to know well while working with Osterøy Spel og Dansarlag in 2014 and the 2 pieces I wrote for them.
It´s in the Gavin Bryars double bill, link below!!
