Benjamin Staern Air – Spiral – Light, Concerto for guitar, seven instruments and electronics.
As the title suggests, Air-Spiral-Light is about air, movement and light, but the music also leverages the incredibly expressive potential of the guitar. In the introduction, we hear the peals of wine glasses which, together with the guitar, create a nearly stratospheric feel. The soloist is Jacob Kellerman, one of our most prominent young guitarists, with a special interest in contemporary music.
