Skybrud

Skybrud stands as my inaugural composition for traditional acoustic instruments and live electronics. The piece is written for drumpad, cello, clarinet, electric bass, marimba and live electronics.

The piece was commissioned by new music ensemble K!art and premiered at Spot Festival 2024.

Skybrud is Danish for ‘Cloudburst’ and the piece is a commentary on the many cloud burst in Denmark caused by climate change.

K!art is:
