Davíð Brynjar Franzson

Davíð Brynjar Franzson's musical language has been described as "sonically imaginative... part installation, all mood" by the Los Angeles Times and "engagingly tactile" by the New York Times.
Through long–standing collaborations with young ensembles, he has developed a musical sound that equally explores the internal dynamics of sounds and instruments, as the social dynamics of performance.
His scores are published via Schott Music and his music can be heard on Innova, Spektral, Smekkleysa and Carrier Records, a NYC based record label that he co–runs with Sam Pluta and Jeff Snyder.
Born and raised in Iceland, Davíð lives and works in New York.
About the piece:
A sound can be heard as just a sound––void of all context and meaning other than its own identity––or as a part of a larger whole when placed in a musical context.
The context that a sound is heard in affects how we hear that sound at a given time.
When we again hear the sound alone or in a new context we stop hearing it as just a sound or just a part of a whole but instead begin to recognize it as an object with a latent potential to continuously become something new.
