About

The festival opens with the concert evening Organ/Body in collaboration with the Orgelpark. FIBER will present two premieres made especially for, and partly within, the Orgelpark. The fusion between organ sounds, software and electronic music is the focus of the evening. How can air be controlled and used in a new way within traditional organ music? Rotterdam-based musician and composer Casimir Geelhoed breathes new life into two organs in the Orgelpark. For this he uses the hyperorgan, electronics, self-developed software and spatial sound. He will play Deviation live on the hyperorgan. The piece combines hyperorgan and live processing, accompanied by a 12-channel 4DSOUND system. We kindly thank Orgelpark and 4DSOUND for their support. Deviations is commissioned by FIBER and Orgelpark. Maria W Horn and Mats Erlandsson present a version of The Spectral Organ, adapted to the organs and architecture of the Orgelpark. Horn’s compositional practice uses minimalist structures and piercing power electronics, utilizing both digital and analog synthesis as well as acoustic instruments and audiovisual components. In this setting, the music uses electronically-treated organs to create a hybrid instrument. When playing the pieces, the two performers measure the duration of each chord by the length of their individual breaths, connecting the body to the organ through the medium of air.
