New composer: Jakob Svartengren

We are, least to say, overwhelmed by the opportunity to work with the creative, complex and uncompromisingly inventive music of Jakob Svartengren!

Jakob Svartengren, born 1980, is currently living in Gothenburg and studied at the Gotland School of Music Composition and the Academy of Music and Drama at the University of Gothenburg, among others. 

As a composer he is interested in contrasts, hyperboles, contradictions, inconsistencies, ambiguities, artificiality, mass effects and maximalism. He is working with both acoustic and electronic music.

Jakob's piece 171118, specially written for Ensemble Dasein, will be premiered the 6/10-18 at Pygmeeteatern (Sthlm) in a program of new music by Nordic composers.
