Landscape with figures IIa
Landscape with figures II was a large production. I suggested preparing an alternative version for Song Circus with electronics. The modular nature of the work made it possible to rearrange it to 2 shorter versions for separate performances.
Landscape with figures IIa was made for Song Circus, planned for performance 16/3-2014 in Stavanger. It was natural to include all the Intermezzi fragments and variations, where the ensemble parts were composed on top of existing vocal parts, while the antiphonal parts would make less sense without the ensemble.

Landscape with figures IIb
Landscape with figures IIb was made for Oslo sinfonietta and premiered 23/11-2013 in St. Pauls Hall, Huddersfield, during the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival. Even more parts were cut for the work to fit into the programme and the schedule of BBC as a 20’ piece. All the Intermezzi fragments and variations depended strongly on the voices, while Antiphonal chamber music fragments were already purely instrumental. It became a denser piece, as the more meditative fragments and soundscapes had to go out.
