November Music states that the focus of the festival is on those who are not swimming with the stream or against it but who are creating their own new varieties.
Simon Løffler’s F.O.W.L. is performed by Oslo Sinfonietta on 6 November. In F.O.W.L. Simon Løffler combines conventional and unconventional instruments and the work thus features an unusual array of instruments including swung whistles, double bass, gaffa-taped shoes, saxophone and a battery driven drill.

Christian Winther Christensen is represented with two works at this year’s November Music. On 9 November, the music theatre work Eating a Man is performed by SCENATET. The work is created in collaboration with Anna Berit Asp Christensen. On 10 November Ensemble Ascolta will perform Winther Christensen’s Children’s Songs inspired by the sound of play and children’s music through history.

On 11 November, Ascolta performs Simon Steen-Andersen’s Inszenierte Nacht. In Inszenierte Nacht, Steen-Andersen takes on famous pieces inspired by night (including its spooky side), from Bach to Ravel. He stages them afresh for ear and eye, updates and dusts them off – thus removing them from their historical distance into the here and now. In other words, instead of a fussy “reading of the classics,” he underscores the originally unsettling impact of these works.
