About this exposition

The master’s thesis "I lydarlæte" is an artistic exploration of lydarlæte. Lydarlæte is a music tradition with roots dating back to the beginning of the 1800s and is music that was meant for listening – at a time when Hardanger fiddle music was otherwise associated with dance or ceremony. Through an exploration of musical details and characteristics in traditional lydarlæte, the goal of the research is to create new music that has both a distinctive character and a connection with traditional repertoire. The work draws inspiration from different musical traditions, including traditional and experimental folk music, spectral music, and contemporary music. The investigation is presented and exemplified through reworkings of the three lydarlæte tunes Smedalslåtten, Guro, and Lydarlått etter Ola Okshovd, which are based on recordings of Ola Nilsson Lie (1898-1957) and Andris A. Dahle (1925-1995). The first part of the thesis sheds light on traditional lydarlæte from Valdres, addressing their emergence, central performers of the first era, and the repertoire. The various aspects of the investigation are then presented; these include musical parameters such as combination tones, tonality, and fiddle tunings, as well as time understood through Henri Bergson and musical time. The main approach used in the reworkings of lydarlæte has been termed “zooming in – unfolding” and is inspired by Gerard Grisey’s work on Les Espaces acoustiques. Finally, the three reworkings are presented. The work is hermeneutically rooted and draws on theoretical perspectives from Hans-Georg Gadamer.
