F/eks minifestival: Linnéa Talp (SE) + Luka Aron (DE) + Seamus Cater (GB)

Orgelet har opplevd en sekulær renessanse de siste årene: demontert, elektrifisert eller bygget fra grunnen av med DIY-piper. Bli med på en F/eks-minifestival i den vakre Vålerenga kirke med syntetiserte kirkeklokker, mikrotonale ballader og fengende orgelstykker.

SEAMUS CATER

Seamus Cater, en engelsk musiker bosatt i Amsterdam, vil spille sanger på et selvbygget mikrotonalt pipeorgel. Hans musikk beveger seg mot den eksperimentelle siden av låtskriving, med røtter i folkemusikken, spesielt balladene, fra de britiske øyer.

LUKA ARON

Luka Aron er en komponist og musiker født i Schwarzwald, som arbeider mellom Stockholm og Berlin. Musikken hans dreier seg om samspillet mellom syntese og akustiske instrumenter, der han fletter kraften fra power electronics inn i skjøre klangarkitekturer formet av pust, trykk og berøring. På F/eks presenterer han Up in the Bell Tower, sitt arbeid med kirkeklokker, der han bruker opptak fra kirker i Schwarzwald, Venedig, og ikke minst fra Vålerenga kirke, og skaper nærmest kroppslige elektroniske verdener ut av dem.

LINNÉA TALP

Linnéa Talp er komponist og utøver, bosatt i Stockholm. Hennes praksis dreier seg om de abstrakte aspektene ved pipeorgelet, med fokus på elementer som klangfarge, mikrotonalitet og tonal ustabilitet. Våren 2026 ble albumet hennes Variations for Light Waves utgitt, med musikk skrevet for pipeorgel, kontrabassklarinett, trombone og sinusbølger. På F/eks vil Linnéa presentere musikk for sitt selvbygde modulære pipeorgel, sammen med det store Carsten Lund-kirkeorgelet i Vålerenga kirke.

LUKA ARON

Luka Aron is a composer and musician born in the Black Forest, who divides his time between Stockholm and Berlin. His music centres on the interplay between synthesis and acoustic instruments, weaving the power of power electronics into delicate sonic architectures shaped by breath, pressure and touch. At F/eks, he presents Up in the Bell Tower, his work with church bells, in which he uses recordings from churches in the Black Forest, Venice and, not least, Vålerenga Church, to create almost physical electronic worlds from them.
