About
Professor of Double Bass, Jazz and Experimental Music
Deputy Head NTNU Ocean and Coast
I am a professor of double bass, jazz and experimental music at NTNU – Department of Music, where I teach double bass, ensemble and free improvisation, as well as supervise master's and doctoral students. I am the deputy head at NTNU Ocean and Coast.
I have previously been deputy head of research at the Department of Music, and at the Faculty of Humanities I have been a member of the faculty board as a representative of permanent academic staff, and participated in both the employment committee and the research committee. I have also led NTNU Artistic Research Week in 2020 and 2024, as well as contributed to several committees related to the implementation of the Research Catalogue and websites for art at NTNU.
Nationally, I have for several years led Seminar 5 at the national research school in artistic research. I have been editor and co-editor of various anthologies and journals, and have served as opponent and committee chair in assessments of fellows and professor promotions both nationally and internationally.
BIO
Michael Francis Duch (b. 1978) was born and raised in Trondheim and plays double bass. He is a member of the editorial board of VIS – Nordic Journal for Artistic Research and an alumni member of the Young Academy of Norway.
Duch completed his three-year period as an art fellow at the Department of Music, NTNU, with his viva voce on October 30, 2010. In his project “Free Improvisation – Genre and Method” he researched free improvisation and improvisation-based experimental music.
He has contributed to over 80 releases in various formats, including several solo albums, and has played solo concerts in Norway, Sweden, Reykjavik, Athens, Madrid, Vienna, Glasgow, Huddersfield and London. Duch has worked closely with composers such as Lene Grenager and Michael Pisaro-Liu and has premiered several solo pieces written especially for him. He has also released several albums of newly written music.
His main interest lies in experimental contemporary music, especially the Anglo-American tradition from the 1950s and 60s, with composers such as Cornelius Cardew, John Cage, Christian Wolff and Pauline Oliveros.
Duch plays regularly with SiTron (Trondheim Sinfonietta) and the Alpaca Ensemble. He is also active in a number of other constellations, including a trio with John Tilbury and Rhodri Davies, the improv quartet LEMUR (with Bjørnar Habbestad, Hild Sofie Tafjord and Lene Grenager), the free jazz trio EN EN EN (with Tor Haugerud and Eirik Hegdal) and the Scottish experimental disco band AMOR.
He has collaborated with a number of renowned musicians, including Pauline Oliveros, Mats Gustafsson, AMM, George Lewis, Christian Wolff, Tony Conrad and Joëlle Léandre.
