What happens when a massive star dies? In a cataclysmic explosion it hurls enormous amounts of star matter into the Universe and becomes a Nova. But this matter contains essential building blocks for the creation of new stars and planets;
so the old star contributes to the giving of new life. When Reformation reached Norway in 1536 A.D., virtually all of the ancient Gregorian tradition was annihilated. Still Norwegian music of today, folk music as well as work of art, contains lots of traces from the influence of medieval music. Discover what happens when the Middle Ages speak through the heart of a contemporary composer – ARS NOVA.
