Description
All four compositions of Orenslyd are developed from an exploration of acoustic and vocal sound formation and the active participation of our listening ability in this formation.The four pieces represent different manifestations of the tonal expression of the human voice and the acoustic richness of the double bass.Orenslyd(from "ore", ear, and "lyd", sound) means "the opportunity to hear something being said or to be heard yourself".
The pieces on Orenslyd were composed in 2019 as part of a cooperation with the Humboldt University in Berlin, where they were first performed on 26 October 2019. All the works are written for and performed by Tone Elisabeth Braaten, soprano, Ebba Rydh, mezzo-soprano, Per Kristian Amundrod, tenor, and Hakon Thelin, double bass. Their ability for nuanced vocal and instrumental articulation forms the very basis for the sounding result of these four compositions.

As a researcher, he is, among other things, concerned with sound and listening as a phenomenological experience, as well as the interplay between art, science and aesthetic learning.
