Interview with conductor Halldis Rønning (part 2)

Question 2.   What does the conductor do differently with the music when able to conduct the electronic sound as well as conducting the traditional way? Is there a feeling of fusion of the roles of the conductor and performer?

Question 3.   How does the conductor feel using the ConDiS, does it feel natural toward her way of conducting?

Not hearing the source of her insecurity at the beginning.

Did a different location of the loudspeakers make a difference? During the “Nordic Tour” performance took place in different “concert” halls with different placements of the ensemble.

Did a different location of the loudspeakers make a difference?

  3. Ensemble located on stage with front speakers on their sides. (Nordic House and Christians Church, Klaksvik)
  4. Ensemble located on stage with front speakers behind. (København)

Did a different resonating hall make a difference in the performance? Probably the piece and the Glove benefits from some space.
