New Music and Jazz at Scandinavia House






Aventa New Music Society Moonlit:

Contemporary Music from Denmark

Monday, March 5, 7:30 pm

It is estimated that at least one new Danish work is premiered every day—a striking number reflecting the increasing specialization of young musicians in new music and the fertile interaction between composers and musicians in that country. The motley contemporary music scene in Denmark is characterized by diverse influences and inspired both by important Danish composer personalities and the international music scene. Many of today's Danish composers have their aesthetic roots in the so-called “new simplicity” movement, a Danish brand of minimalism that arose well before this term became an internationally known musical concept.


At Scandinavia House Aventa New Music Society, Canada’s leading new music ensemble, will perform an all-Danish program with works by some of the today’s most interesting Danish composers, featuring Bent Sørensen’s The Weeping White Room, Klaus Ib Jøregensen’s Moon-pain, Hans Abrahamsen’s Six Pieces, Per Nørgård’s Wenn die Rose sich selbst schmückt…, and Poul Ruders’s Abysm. The Aventa New Music Society is under the artistic direction of Bill Linwood and comprised of approximately 15 musicians.

Tickets: $15 ($12 ASF members & students).

For reservations call (212) 847-9740.

Scandinavia House: The Nordic Center in New York, is located at:
