Agnes Szelag

Page under construction.  But for now:

“Given that they’re such kindred spirits, it seems only logical that a collaboration between kindred spirits cellist Helena Espvall (of Espers) and Myrmyr duo Agnes Szelag (cello) and Marielle Jakobsons (violin) would have occurred at some point, and now is as good a time as any….”

–Textura.org on my new trio album Improvisations for Strings and Electronics with Helena Espvall & Marielle Jakobsons.

“Music that is dealing with long form, sustaining but also bending of tones, making this both melodic yet also abstract, gentle and majestic, moody and atmospheric. Somewhere in between modern classical music and improvised music, this is an excellent release.”

– Vital Weekly on my new trio album Improvisations for Strings and Electronics with Helena Espvall & Marielle Jakobsons.

Agnes’ music has been hailed as “a distinctive voice in the electro-acoustic field” by Textura, and “gorgeous” by XLR8R.  Her duo with The Norman Conquest, dokuro, is described by THE WIRE as “discreetly sculptured.”   Myrmyr her collaboration with Marielle Jakobson has numerous reviews for both albums with descriptions such as “soaring chamber compositions in perfect ambient space” by Boomkat.
