Mosaics (2021)
orchestra
15'
Publisher: Edition Wilhelm Hansen
Here in the Nordic Countries – Finland included – we are surrounded by the world’s most unpolluted nature, now changing fast as the climate grows warmer. The new weather conditions vary from place to place.
Mosaics, as its name suggests, is a mosaic-like piece made up of and inspired by that reality. It was composed as part of the major Nordic, a Fragile Hope project dealing with climate change by Swedish photographer and film maker Joakim Odelberg, but it can also stand alone as an independent orchestral work. The musical themes reflect the world of my first opera A Room of One’s Own. Mosaics was commissioned by the Gothenburg and Oulu Symphony Orchestras.
