Curated by Trond Reinholdtsen (external link), Ellen Ugelvik and Mark Knoop present a double piano recital to reinvent the genre.

Our museum is like a church, you must first have been a sinner to become saint. Only those who most radically have broken the law may be included in the archive. Here, two star pianists systematically break through the utopian, heroic modernist and esoteric piano canon of dead (or at least half-dead) composers. Including works by Bach, Cage (external link), Cowell, Feldman (external link), Huber, Ives, Lourie, Messiaen, Mossolov, Nancarrow, Poppe (external link), Radulescu, Scelsi, Schoenberg, Sciarrino (external link), Scriabin, Sorabji, Stockhausen (external link), Ustvolskaya, Webern, and Xenakis.
