Composition, research, teaching and admin

I am almost finished with the work for saxophone quartet and organ for Nordic Saxophone Quartet, commissioned to work together with Johannes Thorell’s great transcription of a Haydn keyboard concerto.

I am proof reading a journal article for Organised Sound on notation for live-electronics ensembles. Next paper will be a kind of survey article on graphic notation.

Teaching is fun as always, especially with the CoPeCo master (Contemporary Performance and Composition) students being at KMH for this spring semester before  continuing the program in Lyon and Hamburg. Anyone who’s in Stockholm can hear them perform Fri 20th March at a lunch concert at KMH.

This time of the academic year is also associated with lots of admin concerning admissions to our college. Also, we are evaluating our two composition bachelor programs which is a very rewarding process.
