I grew up in middle of Stockholm (Sweden), very close to Odenplan. When the percussion class of Lilla Akademien, a music school not far from Odenplan, asked me to write a new piece I came up with the idea of blending harmonies from Stockholm and rhythms from American composer Steve Reich (I hope this piece can be an introduction to his music for young percussion players). It became a piece in three movements called... Odenplan. The new booklet for young percussion players contains three songs for mallet percussion by Daniel Berg.
