ANDERS LIND / COMPOSER
Lind composes music for orchestras, ensembles and soloists in combination with live electronics and interactive technologies. Lind works with electronic innovations such as Mobile Phone Orchestra, Animated Notations and Interactive Instruments in combination with traditional orchestra/ensemble/soloist settings as a way of developing new artistic possibilities, inviting ordinary people into the sometimes forbidding world of contemporary classical music.
“…Unable to recall any premiere at Norrlandsoperan that has generated such diverse sounds and fostered collective interaction across boundaries. This has rendered contemporary art music relevant for our time.”
– Västerbottens Kuriren/ Sweden
”Lind achieves two seemingly unrelated goals with this project: democratizing the performance of contemporary orchestral music while also developing new musical possibilities for the performance of music with electronic sounds.” – Festival Maribor/ Slovenia
