Tjampuan (1992) - 'Where the Rivers meet' - 6 Movements for Violin and Cello by Per Norgard . Programme Note: Any nature phenomenon with a character of its own - a bat cave, a very old banja tree etc, is by the balinese regarded as holy (for which reason very often a temple is placed close to it !) Thus also the place where two rivers meet (called 'tjampuan'in Indonesian, this also the name of a valley 'where the rivers meet'near Ubud, Bali). The connection to a duo for violin and cello is hardly difficult to understand: Two individualities integrate their soloistic expressions to one, the rivers meet. The 5th movement, however, is a thorough contrast movement (more 'brooklike'!), as is also the 6th movement which, with its whirling figurations, rather associate to kataracts or fountains. Per Norgard (1992).
