The composers:

Asbjørn Schaatun (1961) is regarded as a pioneer in Norway with his work with computer-aided music. He has received numerous awards and was a founding member of Oslo Sinfonietta. José M. Sánchez-Verdú (1968) is a Spanish composer and conductor with a long track record. His compositions are performed by several major festivals and concert halls. Bent Sörensen (1958) is one of Denmark’s most prominent composers. His mature works create a sense of decay that is emotionally similar to viewing an aging visual artwork. There is a sense of compromised beauty. Luigi Nono (1924–1990) was an Italian avant-garde composer and is regarded as one of the most prominent composers of the 20th century.
