about

​​Skymt is remnants and ripplings from memories of romantic songs.
​​
​​Through several years, Live Maria Roggen (vocal) and Ingfrid Breie Nyhus (piano) have worked with improvisatory interpretation of romantic texts and music, by zooming in and zooming out on different layers of what the song can be about, searching for different ways to express this. The duo have let their personal practices of today meet the old romantic musical material, and this serve as catalyst for developing new duo-expressions for song and piano.
​​
​​Roggen/Nyhus have previously released the EP «Demanten», containing improvised versions of songs by Jean Sibelius and Finnish-Swedish poets. Though, during the later years, the work moved into compositional processes with memories and remnants of the songs and poems, with questions of what this can lead to in new forms, shadows and associations, through Roggen/Nyhus’ duo language and embodiment.
​​
​​Skymt stems from songs and poems about unrest, longing, disturbance and sorrow - but it is not the old stores that are in the centre anymore, it is rather looking for new spaces that the old undercurrents may lead into.
