A work experienced through four senses: sound, colour, taste and touch.

Tine Surel Lange wants to create a space where audiences can gather, slow down and experience something together.

Let us all sense draws on the polar night in Lofoten, where the composer is based. During the polar night, the sun never rises above the horizon, but darkness is never simply dark. Light remains in the landscape, in deep blues, greens, reds, whites and golden hues across snow and sea.

The work is built around four colours, four tastes, four textures and the four musicians of Ensemble AREPO, exploring how colours can be heard, tasted and felt.

Come in. It is dark outside.

As a child, Tine Surel Lange heard a Danish priest invite his congregation with the words lad os alle bede — let us all pray. Beyond religion, the idea of a group of people called together into a communal act stayed with her.
“It is not so important to me, this thing about genres” Tine Surel Lange says when asked to define her practice across music, image, video, performance and text: “I think the best word for me is storyteller. I tell stories.”
AREPO consists of clarinet, cello, electric guitar and accordion. Formed in 2022, the ensemble works closely with young composers including Olivia Køppe and Ferdinand Schwarz, both also featured at Ultima 2026, in And Now the Weather and Untitled School and Other Strange Lessons, respectively.
The concert is co-produced with nyMusikk Oslo – Periferien, a concert series for contemporary classical music that presents innovative music in Oslo throughout the year.
