Biography
Hornorkesteret is a contemporary music group who uses instrument inventions such as stringed and bowed antlers, bones, ice, coffeepots, rocks, and various woods together with vocals, flutes, drums and field recordings, creating an epic music touching on subjects like polar exploration, ecology, the cyclic forces in nature, animal urges, and the norwegian mental and physical climate. Using spoken word, free improv, noise, folk, blues, drones and even rock 'n'roll, they have done concerts, art gallery performances, theatrical productions and studio recordings with varying line-ups since established by Jonas M. Qvale in 1999.
