About
Temporal Gardening was originally a commission written in 2020 for Bergen Barokk. The idea was to explore using early music instrumentation in dialogue with new electro-acoustic technology. The unique and remarkable ecology grew from pseudo-baroque music playfully reimagined, reinterpreted, disassembled, remixed, and resampled.
The trio has been expanded with drums, functioning as speakers for the electronic manipulations of the ensemble. A double-bass recorder vibrates a sub-woofer speaker mounted inside a bass drum, and a live sampled harpsichord sounds through cymbals, gongs, and a snare drum. Meidell himself part takes as a musician in the performance, doing live sampling and electronic contributions.
Musician-composer Stephan Meidell is a musical adventurer who, in a nomadic fashion, improvises his way through a plentitude of styles. Meidell's music exists where genres dissolve into fragments that can be picked apartand combined in new ways. He frequently combines sounds from electronic, acoustic, and electromechanical instruments and machines and then recontextualises them with his finely tuned intuition and sense of detail. Meidell has a plentitude of releases and commissions, including with Erlend Apneseth Trio, Strings & Timpani, Cakewalk, and TRIGGER on labels such as Hubro, Clean Feed, Playdate, and Ideophone.
Bergen Barokk was established in 1994 and is today one of Norway's leading early-music ensembles. The group has concertised and appeared in radio broadcasts in Europe, Russia and USA. Their recordings on Simax Classics, BIS, Bergen Digital Studio and Toccata Classics include German, English, Italian and French repertoire. Bergen Barokk has collaborated with several ensembles through the recent years, some of them are Pratum Integrum (Moscow), Norwegian Soloists' Choir and Barokksolistene (Norway). Bergen Barokk has performed in festivals like Festspillene i Bergen, Bach Festival of Philadelphia, Moscow Early Music Festival and Janáček International Music Festival (Czech Republic).
