about

The title MUN comes from an Aboriginal language, meaning the imagination. It was written in 2007. At that time, starting in 2005, I was trying to approach music in a different way. I was fed up with the defining and structuring in music in general. Miles Davis, Frank Zappa, Arvo Pärt, John Zorn and many others introduced me to a different kind of music. Music where nothing is prohibited; everything is allowed. Off course ‘everything’ can be too much in one composition. [Listen to my album “The Phlod-Nar: In Eternity” (2010) where many, many ideas are explored. Too many? That’s up to the listener…]. MUN was one of those ideas; to explore many different musical aspects. Like improvisation, repetition, melodic lines, dissonance. On the other hand I wanted to keep it simple. No challenging passages or anything sounding too difficult. Eventually, MUN is also about the intuitive, the emotional, and about thoughtfulness and reflection. On the score it says: ‘All time signatures and tempo indications are relative. Use your imagination’. The same can be expected from the listener.
