Peter Sandberg & Moritz Fasbender

Over the course of seven albums, Sandberg has built an extensive oeuvre characterized by emotional clarity and conceptual depth. His compositions have been featured in major television series, including Stranger Things (seasons 3 and 4). This has introduced his distinctive sound to a new audience while confirming his special ability to evoke deep emotion through simplicity and space.

His forthcoming album, Temporary Coexistence of Humans, will be released on May 1, 2026, in which Sandberg returns to the piano as a central instrument and explores the illusion of control - how human lives intersect and collide in fleeting, unpredictable ways, like particles in a vast web of cause and effect. The tracks on the album seem like small, vivid observations: Moments of connection, compassion, regret and letting go. Beneath their minimalist surface lies a quiet curiosity about what it means to share time and space with others.

From his studio in Uppsala , Peter Sandberg continues to blur the boundaries between classical form and contemporary reflection. His music seeks not so much resolution as understanding - inviting listeners to pause in the tension and discover beauty in the fragile, fleeting coexistence of us all.

Moritz Fasbender is one of the many pseudonyms of pianist and composer Friederike Bernhardt.

She fuses her classical background on the grand piano in a unique way with the as yet unexplored field of electroacoustics in piano music: the result is a radical collage of special sounds that creates an interwoven musical landscape of extraordinary beauty. Her work for countless theater and radio productions as well as her studies in electroacoustic composition have had a significant influence on the sound language of her current works. Moving between piano and synthesizer, between natural and asserted space, between reality and imagined film images, Fasbender's music goes beyond the conventional and breaks the rules of contemporary classical music, neo-classical music and jazz.

Most recently, Friederike Bernhardt worked at the Schauspielhaus Hamburg as a musician for the productions 'Orlando' and 'MacBeth'

"With Fasbender, we are listening to a woman who is setting new standards on the borderline between classical and electronic music, sleepwalking between analog sound and virtual space - most recently captured on her debut 13 RABBITS, released as a split release on Sony's XXIM Records and Edition Dur/Dusssmann. She works with a specific attention to echo chambers and noise and uses electronics like a chef uses spices. A radical and at the same time dark, nocturnal suite. A film score for lonely nights."
