Chamber Unplugged May 11

At last year’s Saxå Chamber Music Festival, five new pieces were premiered by as many composers, commissioned by Saxå and four other contemporary music festivals around Europe. Each composer has made their own interpretation of a common theme: fairy tales and our identity. Fairy tales and stories are key to both our imagination and reality. All over the world, not just here in Sweden, you can find ancient oral traditions that are explored – and challenged – in these five pieces for vocal quartet and narrator.
