First attempt on track "B"

Due to the happy event of the birth of my two children, I have had a pause in my composing activity for about two weeks. The day before yesterday, I made the first attempt on turning the idea sketch for track B into audio. I decided early on to let oboes interpret the blue lines in the original sketch. The sketch showed the oboes coming disparately from different directions, but during my leave, it has become clear to me that I want them to be unison from the beginning, and after a while spread into the chords.

So, I recorded five oboetracks. An introduction followed by the chords. It sounds like this.

Compose Part 2

"Compose Part 2" is a tune from the "[Puie: Dsch] Collaborative"-project, where I and designer Karin Gullbrantz created a chair with accompanying music in a parallell process, so the design was inspired by the music and the music by the design.

The sharp synth-sounds in the beginning reflects one of Karin's models of a chair chassis made of a twisted steelrod. The melody played by the oboe is similar to another model's profile, if it had been placed in a musical sheet.

The "Œuvres" were released in an event at Brand Design Center in Gothenburg, Sweden on the 19th of April 2006.
