Performers and composers from the Norwegian Academy of Music invite you to explore questions about the nature of listening together in a concert at Deichman Bjørvika. resonance / resonate aims to bring the idea of a library as a public space for learning and sharing into the concert space, and create new conditions for experiencing and enjoying music.

The concert features a variety of brand new works by upcoming composers, performed by young musicians. Everything from soothing instrumental chords to experimental performative works can be experienced in the span of 90 minutes. Come and question, challenge, or just sit back and listen to this music, all framed under the busy hum of the library.

resonance / resonate will be immediately followed by a performance of the electronic work L'Ile Re-sonante by French composer Eliane Radigue.
