Immediately after celebrating the past 15 years with Athelas Sinfonietta, we look to the future with NyKlang 2024 – a tour de chambre event presenting four new works composed and performed by young composers studying at MGK. We can expect Satie-inspired structural critiques, shredded micro-compositions, and AI co-creation. We can also expect the unexpected, as one group has chosen to keep their work a secret. NyKlang is a collaboration between Klang Festival and composer and teacher Daniel Fladmose, who has gathered the sixteen composers. The works have taken shape over the last 8 months, with mentoring from composer Jeppe Ernst. 

In Musikhuset’s appropriately named Royal Hall (Kongesal), the newly formed ensemble Monarkiet presents GONG – an exploration of the implicit absurdity of power structures, where one all-powerful conductor commands the other musicians. In Vækst we encounter Kun for dig (Only for you): a series of fleeting and intimate micro-compositions performed for one audience member at a time and immediately shredded afterwards. In the Black Box, Waiting for your input... opens an interactive, co-creative space where the audience’s inputs are directly realised on stage, but not all is what it seems. Finally, the Garden Hall’s HVORDAN KOM I HER, HVEM DREJEDE JER MOD SOLEN (HOW DID YOU GET HERE, WHO TURNED YOU TOWARDS THE SUN), remains a mystery, as the composers have chosen to not reveal any details ahead of time
