UR

Ur is time. Past meets future, young forces are given the chance to carry time forward. Ur is origin. Where we recognize our roots, the past experiences that inform our perspective of the path ahead. Ur is wilderness. The scree clinging to the mountain, hard rock: impassable, majestic and of infinite beauty. Time, origin and nature are core values in "UR". The recordings consist exclusively of commissioned works, written by composers in affiliation with the musical community in Trondheim. The composers have different backgrounds and tonal language, providing this record with a complex and complementary repertoire. Music by Odd Johan Overøye, Øyvind Johan Eiksund, Martin Eikeset Koren, Geir Døhlie Gjerdsjø and Eva Holm Foosnæs. Aurum Chamber Choir (Kammerkoret Aurum) Eva Holm Foosnæs, Conductor
