About
Critical Bands is the culmination of Lemur's decade-long exploration of physical, abstract, and ephemeral sonic spaces. Recorded by more than fifty musicians in different sites and configurations across several countries, the album exposes deep layers of sonic exploration. Complex instrumental materials are captured and filtered through different architectonic spaces, revealing a modular, site-specific composition practice.
'Critical Bands is designed as a process,' LEMUR states. 'It takes form as negotiation between different sites, musicians, scores, and recordings that investigates how music can relate to the space in which it is performed'.
The album was recorded in Nidarosdomen (Trondheim), Korskirken (Bergen), Sofienberg kirke (Oslo), LiteraturHaus (Copenhagen), Notam (Oslo), Harpa (Reykjavik), and Athletic Sound (Halden) and subsequently combined, edited and re-composed by the ensemble. The work is realised with performances from outstanding musicians from Norway and abroad; Eivind Lønning (trumpet), Morten Barrikmo (clarinets), Tanja Orning (cello), Robin Hayward (tuba), Torben Snekkestad (sax), Lotte Anker, Caput Ensemble, Ole Henrik Moe (octobass, violin, viola), Kari Rønnekleiv and many more!
