Welcome to a festive occasion as we, for the ninth time, present the prestigious Composer of the Year award in folk and world music! An honor given to outstanding creators in the fields of folk and world music.

​

Merit Hemmingson is a multifaceted artist who has explored and created her own musical landscapes throughout her career. In her music, genres are transformed in an idiosyncratic way, with jazz, groove rock, and folk music merging and blending together. In this way, she has carved out a truly unique place in Swedish music history.

The first female griot in history – singer, storyteller, entertainer, and historian. With an electric stage presence, Sona Jobarteh plays the West African instrument, the kora, a 21-stringed harp and one of the most important instruments for the Mandingo people of West Africa. Traditionally played by a griot, the kora's player is always a man – until Gambian Sona Jobarteh decided to change the rules of tradition and began playing the kora and telling stories with her songs.

Note: This is a standing concert. No picnic!

Do you like folk dancing but think that the folk songs sometimes feel too short and want to dance non-stop all night long to suggestive beats? Do you like clubbing but think that electronic music feels too plastic and square and long for musicians with acoustic instruments playing 3-beat grooves?

22.45 ► Jam with Ville Syri

Bring your instrument! Or dance, dance, dance…

"1 km of Music" is a concert, a performance, and site-specific art – all in one! Throughout the Folk Festival week, a 1-kilometer-long sheet of music, composed by Malmö musician Brita Björs, will stretch across the foyers of Malmö Live Konserthus. It will wind up and down stairs, hang from ceilings, walls, and railings. For two days, you can experience the artwork and the music.

Come and watch. Come and listen. Come and play.

"1 km of Music" consists of long fabric strips with musical notes, mounted in places like a forest, a city, or a giant room – a ribbon that is 1 km long. The appearance of the notes is quite varied: some more classical, others more unusual, with a bit of graphic notation and images. "1 km of Music" is a playful musical and visual work, a music installation performance.

​

Idea, Composition, Production – Brita Björs
Illustrator – Ida Björs
Production Assistant – John Dunsö
Composition Coach – Jesper Nielsen
Photography, Film – Max Tellving
 

Don't miss "1 km of Music" – After work at 3 PM on Friday.

And don't miss "1 km of Music" – Performance at 5 PM on Saturday.
