about

Guitarist , composer and bandleader Mark Solborg has in the course of the last three years concurrently with his work on groups and concerts investigated and developed his instrument and a musical idiom.

T U N G E M Å L is concerned with the electrified guitar as a voice in contemporary chamber- musical contexts. With this comprehensive project Solborg wishes to elaborate the intimate listening experience, and develop methods and tools for the creative work at hand. An extensive artistic study and qualifying awareness of the modern guitar in interplay with acoustic instruments, and the musical spaces they inhabit.

How do you talk - alone and with others - when you are the only one that is being translated through a loudsepaker ? ..and is it possible to play both acoustically and electrified - simultaneously ?

During the course of three volumes Solborg illustrates and documents his research, discoveries, attacks on the tongue of the guitar - and musical conversation in acoustic spaces. His T U N G E M Å L.

Vol I, focuses on solo works and Vol II that contains works for duo and trio - both recordet in the studio and site-specific. Vol III is to be released in spring 2021 and holds recordings with Susana Santos Silva, Lars Greve and Paul Lovens - live in concert.

The two corresponding books contain a multitude of related process-material. From written reflections and notes to scores, footage, spatial digrams and graphic illustrations. All created and compiled by Solborg himself with the ambition of mapping the topography and formulating the poetics of the work that along with the music contributes to the full understanding of T U N G E M Å L. Solborg views the entire release as a collection or dictionary that seeks to be experienced by specialist, student and layman alike.

Enjoy!
