Deviations for accordion and string orchestra was premiered by Andreas Angell and Telemark Chamber Orchestra in Hamar, Skien and Oslo (WP) 21.—26.10. 2021. As the title suggests, it is quite clear in this work that the accordion stands out visually, lined up against all the strings. This work examines, among other things, whether the differences also apply sonically and musically and in what way. When do they merge, when do they separate?

Porphyry imitations for violin and piano (2016-17) was premiered by Ingvild Habbestad and Joachim Kwetzinsky in Asker 19.01 and Oslo 25.01.2017
The music is inspired by the volcanic rock named Rhomb porphyry. In addition to East Africa and the Antarctica it only exists in the Oslo-region, Norway. The consistency is both crisp and hard, fine-grained and coarse-grained—created during a dramatic development 250 million years ago, when steamy lava mass was flowing out of the innermost chambers of earth.

Dwindle for stringquartet (2008—2009) was premiered by Cikada string quartet in Moss 15.03.09 and Oslo 25.04.09
Dwindle is available on the CD: Kari Beate Tandberg Modes and Moves 2016. [listen on Spotify or Tidall]
“To open with a fading intensity is not really a recommended way of composing. However, in the string quartet Dwindle I make it a challenge to do so. And as far as I am concerned it works! In this piece, small motifs are repeated variations of themselves”. KBT
