Deed

2003 | flute, violin, cello and piano (14')

Written for the Peärls before swïne experience (SE).
Alternative title: DÅD

Deed was composed in Visby for The Pearls Before Swine Experience. The piece is shaped and composed after an “extended palindrome principle” (as in the title “deed”, or in Swedish “dåd”). The flute introduction/prologue is named “insinuations”, and together with the older piece “reverberations” they complete a three-part thematic connection. Deed was made out of an electroacoustic piece made by recordings of the Pearls Before Swine Experience. Though a completely acoustic piece, it was performed at EMS:s (Electro acoustic Music Sweden) 40-years´ celebration.

Selected performances: Tokyo (Tokyo, JP), Baltic art center (Visby, SE (premiere)), Nalen (Stockholm, SE), Crescendo (Norrköping, SE), Swedish radio (P2, SE), Groundswell radio (CA), B.A.S. Bandhagen (Stockholm, SE), Marvin Duchow Library (Montréal, CA).
