Ben Frost and Daníel Bjarnason create ‘Solaris’ with Sinfonietta Cracovia
Poland's Unsound Festival has commissioned Ben Frost and Daníel Bjarnason to create a new piece of music inspired by Andre Tarkovsky’s 1972 film and the original novel Solaris written by Polish author Stanislaw Lem. The music will be performed live by Frost, Bjarnason and Krakow’s 28-piece Sinfonietta Cracovia.
This work will be premiered at Unsound Festival in Krakow in October, and be performed at the second edition of Unsound Festival New York in April 2011.
TweetWhat the press says
Processions deserves to be [Bjarnason's] global breakthrough. It’s the sound of fire and instinct, the musical equivalent of a controlled burn. Perhaps all sounds to silence come, but thanks to Bjarnason, that sonic Armageddon seems a long distance away.

“Surely one of the most bombastic modern classical albums you’re likely to hear all year”.
