about

Ad Lib is based on a material developed through improvisation. The score shows the ideas and the structure, and the musicians have to fill each idea with their own sound. An aim is to create a polyphonic metamorphosis from one part to the next one. The notation is without exact timing, so the performers move from part to part by cues made intuitively by listening to the sound-landscapes that evolve during each run-through.

The recording of Ad Lib was done in one take live in studio, and there were no cuts during post production, only mixing and mastering. We did it that way to keep the feeling of a natural flow thoughout the whole piece, like we all experienced it in the studio.

Ad Lib was commissioned and premiered [at Landmark in January 2015) by Bergen Improstorband. For the recording session in January 2018, the score was slightly changed and adapted to the LP-format, and with a few changes in instrumentation. I am extremely happy to dedicate this piece to Bergen Improstorband for their great spirit of freedom and enthusiasm for the music itself.
