Tvärtomsånger

by Ulf Långbacka

for mezzo-soprano, flute, violin and piano

Description

Eva-Stina Byggmästar’s singular world demands to be expressed through unique sounds. This led me toward a musical language very different from my earlier instrumental compositions, shaped by unconventional playing techniques and vocal approaches within a modernist, Dadaist tradition. For me as a composer, it was both challenging and deeply engaging to seek out a sound world that could truly resonate within Byggmästar’s distinctive universe.
