Quod est in nomine? is a piece which serves as a framework for exploring the interplay between a chamber ensemble and an improvising duo – Norwegian composer and percussionist Dag Magnus Narvesen and the legendary German free jazz pianist Alexander von Schlippenbach. With some open parts, and some more strictly written parts (for the ensemble), it moves between different modes and moods at the crossroads of both preconceived and spontaneous musical material. The conductor has been given more agency through not only providing an opening for conducted improvisation, but also enabling him to insert parts of the composed material ad libitum, defying the temporal limitation of the score itself. In other words, many relationships are invited into the negotiation of the musical moment: The small and the large ensemble; the conductor and his instrument; and the composed and the improvised parts.
