The concert RO PÅ will unfold as one continuous musical-meditative flow, created through transitions composed by Louise Alenius, who has also co-curated the event. Drawing on the composers’ own experiences from their musical practices, the program will give rise to new, beautiful, and gentle works within an otherwise quite uniform, electronically based ambient meditation soundscape.
The participating composers are Aya Yoshida, Magnus Plejdrup, Arnannguaq Gerstrøm, Teitur, John Frandsen, Niels Rønsholdt, SØS Gunver Ryberg, Mads Emil Dreyer, Matias Vestergård and Louise Alenius.
Before the concert, there will be an introduction featuring composer and concert curator Louise Alenius and Jakob Marstrand, the driving force behind DR’s “Ro På” project.
The works will also be recorded for use in DR’s podcast series “Music & Meditation,” which is based on the idea that music can support better mental health. The purpose of the works is thus very concrete: to embrace the listener with beauty, calm, and harmony as the meditation unfolds.
