Three Scenes for Percussion and Six Instruments (2009) by Per Norgard. Preface / Program Note: The perpetrator soloist is the continuous figure and protagonist in the "three scenes" of the music. The term "scene" can be understood as ambiguous, both as the physical place, the platform where you perform and play music and drama - and as the term of narrative course and section in a dramatic performance. My musical "scenes" unfold in three different stage performances and ensembles. The first stage is characterized by discrete and melodic instruments, vibraphone and marimba, with counterplay from the three riders. In the second stage, the spotlight is on the butcher soloist alone; we meet the protagonist / soloist in a monologue, performed mainly on "singing saw", which is intended to treat the utmost microton precision. We also hear the soloist playing at Kalimba, also a popular instrument, but now with African background - unlike the domestic courthouse's "musical saw" - an often-heard soundtrack from the childhood comrade at Norrebro. In the third stage there is a fan trio, which initially plays up to the impactor's various powerful drums. After a drum cadence, all seven music ends together for the first time. The work ends with a short sleigh solo.
