Description
Dániel Péter Biró's "Mishpatim (Laws)" is a concert-length work in six parts, scored for voice, chamber ensemble, percussion and electronics, including computer-activated, acoustic "ghost-instruments" that appear to play themselves.
Many of Biró's haunting works are based on texts from the Hebrew Bible. Mishpatim derives its title from Chapters 21-24 of the book of Exodus, in which Moses relays God's laws to the Israelites.
Dániel Péter Biró was born in 1969. He studied in the U.S., Hungary, Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Israel. Today he is Associate Professor at the Grieg Academy, University of Bergen in Norway. He was awarded many times. His compositions are performed around the world.
