Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen’s (1964) way of composing can be described as: uncompromising, wilful and contemporary. It is not surprising, therefore, that this occasionally causes a stir.
In the middle of the Seventies a trend arose in youth culture, which was characterized by provocation, distrust of the great ideologies, and the autonomy of the individual.
Punk is playful, aggressive, often humorous, and anti-everything, which inevitably leads to self-irony.
The first part of Aagaard-Nielsen’s composition (Introduction) is a texture based mainly on one short theme.
This pompous theme breathes a spirit of cold empty plains, where icy winds sigh around yourhead.
In the vehement Punk (Presto barbaro!) there is no longer any question of a theme. The basis for this part is formed by a repetitive motif (a descending minor third).
This motif is alternated with very powerful percussion beats and later on shrill harmonies.
