"Aurora Records proudly presents Temporal Gardening, featuring composer and performer Stephan Meidell and the baroque ensemble Bergen Barokk. The new album will be available on vinyl and digital platforms on 15th of September 2023. Temporal Gardening was originally a commission written in 2020 for Bergen Barokk. The idea was to explore using early music instrumentation in dialogue with new electro-acoustic technology. The unique and remarkable ecology grew from pseudo-baroque music playfully reimagined, reinterpreted, disassembled, remixed, and resampled. The trio has been expanded with drums, functioning as speakers for the electronic manipulations of the ensemble. A double-bass recorder vibrates a sub-woofer speaker mounted inside a bass drum, and a live sampled harpsichord sounds through cymbals, gongs, and a snare drum. Meidell himself part takes as a musician in the performance, doing live sampling and electronic contributions. "
