More about this title

About the Composer: Ørjan Matre

Ørjan Matre is a Norwegian composer and accordionist whose work sits at the intersection of contemporary classical music and traditional Nordic folk idioms. His compositions for accordion demonstrate a deep understanding of the instrument's expressive range, moving beyond its typical folk and dance contexts to explore modern harmonic and textural possibilities.

Why we love this

Matre writes for accordion with genuine understanding of the instrument's expressive range and technical possibilities. This 28-page score from Edition Peters signals serious compositional work that treats the accordion as a concert instrument rather than a folk novelty.

What to expect

Nephilim Song draws on modernist sensibilities while respecting the accordion's natural voice. The 28-page span suggests architecture and development rather than brevity, creating space for the instrument to unfold musical ideas with depth and contemplation.

Who it's for

This is for accomplished accordion players seeking substantial concert repertoire. Performers with solid technique and experience reading contemporary scores will find a genuinely composed work designed for the instrument.

How to get the most out of it

  • Attend carefully to dynamic markings and articulation; accordion tone production depends on precise bellows control and fingerboard nuance.
  • Explore the full range of your instrument's reeds and registers to realize the colors Matre has composed into the score.
  • Give yourself adequate rehearsal time with the score; a 28-page work rewards deep familiarity before performance.

How to use it

Feature this as a recital centerpiece or concert solo that demonstrates accordion as a serious musical voice. Its length and compositional substance work well alongside other concert-level accordion works or as part of a program celebrating 20th and 21st century composition.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading contemporary notation and markings
  • Bellows control for dynamic shaping and articulation
  • Sustained focus over extended solo works
  • Interpreting composer intent in modernist-influenced scores
