Poing
One of the best Scandinavian ensembles for contemporary music, the Norwegian trio Poing is composed of musicians who move lightly between the club scene and the prestigious concert halls of Europe, Asia, and the US. They are at home in notated music as well as improvisation, and they enjoy collaborations with musicians from around the world, e.g. Iran, India, Nepal, the Faroe Islands, Bulgaria, Peru, Tanzania, Ivory Coast, or Japan, who have a background in folk, popular, or experimental music. Since starting out in 1999, Poing have premiered more than a hundred new works and collaborated with some of the most important contemporary composers including Simon Steen-Andersen, Bent Sørensen, Terry Riley, Rolf Wallin, Michael Finnissy, or Helmut Oehring.
