Hans Peter Stubbe Teglbjærg (b. 1963) is educated in instrumental and electronic composition at The Royal Danish Academy of Music (Copenhagen) by Ib Nørholm and Ivar Frounberg, privately with Jan W.

Morthenson (Stockholm), as well as computer composition at the Institut voor Sonologie in The Hague and at IRCAM in Paris, where he was also employed as a composer-researcher and teacher.

He has a keen interest in the physical / acoustic nature of instruments, as well as the phenomenology behind natural sounds. "To penetrate the sound, to be able to compose it" is his real encouragement to use modern technology in connection with composing. He has had numerous collaborations with IRCAM, notably the physical modelling-based work “Ripple Reeds” (2009) for bass clarinet and electronics.

Teaching

Since 2001 he teaches at The Royal Danish Academy of Music in Electro-Acoustic Composition and in 2007-2015 at the South Danish Academy of Music in 3D sound. Regular presenter of new music technologies at IRCAM between 1995 and today.

Artistic practice

The works of Hans Peter has been performanced in Europe, US, Canada and Australia, often in close collaboration with musicians specialized in interpretating and performing contemporary music, e.g. clarinetists Pierre Dutrieu, Vasko Dukovsky & Anne Klett, percussionists Mathias Reumert & Roland Auzet, Ensemble SIC, KlangForum Wien, saxophonist Daniel Kientzy, Ars Nova (Malmö), harpist Ernestine Stoop, Harpecore, violinist Bodil Rørbech, mezzosoprano Helene Gjerris, Signe Asmussen, Torben Snekkestad, Ivo Nilsson, Figura Ensemble, Danish Saxophone Quartet, Ensemble 2000, Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen, Avanti Ensemble and Århus Symphony Orchestra.

His electronic music has been widely performed in various festivals specialized in the genre. His music has been released on labels such as DaCapo, Media Artes, Kontrapunkt. A CD of his main electro-acoustic works is available from his site.

In 2009-2011 Hans Peter was composer-in-residence at the Aarhus Symphony Orchestra for whom he wrote two orchestral works. In 2016-18 he was a composer-in-residence at the Music Innovation Studies Center (Vilnius) where he composed a large scale (3D) trilogy. In 2019-21 he is composer-in-residence at the ACROE (Grenoble) for whom he composes 2 new electro-acoustic works based on Physical Modelling. In 2019-21 he is artist in residence at ZKM (Karlsruhe) producing a work for cello and integrated live electronics. In 2021-23 he is a guest composer at IRCAM (Paris).
