About the Event
An amplified Oslo Sinfonietta premieres a new metal-inspired percussion concerto by Austrian composer Bernhard Gander. Epogdoon (2023, WP) is built on tricky rhythmic grooves based on combinations of prime numbers, which leads to structures and rhythms impossible to imagine. Håkon Stene plays the solo part, with miked-up drums, metal tam-tams and distorted electronic beats.
Two epic collaborations in a lifetime music event! ENSLAVED are one of the most innovative Norwegian black metal groups, revitalising the genre with unexpected elements such as classical instruments and synthesizers. Uncompromising vocalist Jenny Hval joins Enslaved at Betong for a special one-off collaboration on some of their newest songs. Congelia takes us to the iciness and monotony of hell’s deepest crevasses. Heimdal echoes archaic sounds all the while announcing a new day.
