Reminiscence


Reminiscence is mvt. 2 from
Flute Concerto No.1 Op.70
- dedicated to Emily Beynon.
Composer: Fred Jonny Berg

- Berg is one of a handful of composers who are able to create the rare experience of enchanted silence in their music – Berg's Flute Concerto No.1 Op.70 contains several such moments. Even though his tools are a "conventional" orchestra using "conventional" instruments, an unreal atmosphere of calm and celestial flight arises. One of the most fascinating aspects in this regard is that he does not use any minimalist or modernist devices at all; he simply allows the music and its inner qualities to speak in full. In our current age of constant hectic activity, where it is barely permitted to think a complete thought, music such as this is of the greatest importance: it gives the listener the chance to experience time as a benefit and not as a punishment. The concerto is dedicated to the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra's eminent flautist Emily Beynon, and it received its premier performance in London in February 2009.

Not really Gone


Ragnvald Jacobsen (1905-1997)
Composer: Fred Jonny Berg

Not really Gone is a part of the four movements symphonic poem About my Grandfather Op.37 - written in memory of the composer´s grandfather who was a semi-professional athletic. Hence the titles of the movements. He often trained athletics with his grandson.

This work has appeared in the movie Montagna con Forza as well as on the CD with the same name, About my Grandfather.

Vicino alla Montagna 


Vicino alla Montagna - a music and art movie in the
proprietary genre Symbiophonies, by Fred Jonny Berg















"One of the main principles in the Symbiophonies genre is that the inner nature of the music is equal to the visual aspect, and this entity incites much of the action."
