About
Professor of Double Bass, Jazz, and Experimental Music
I am professor of double bass, jazz, and experimental music and former Deputy Head of Research at NTNU – Department of Music. I teach double bass, ensemble, and free improvisation, in addition to supervising master’s and PhD students.
At the Faculty of Humanities, I have served on the faculty board as a representative for permanent academic staff and as a member of both the Appointment Committee and the Research and Development Committee. I have also led the NTNU Artistic Research Week in 2020 and 2024 and contributed to several committees working on the implementation of the Research Catalogue and NTNU’s art and artistic research web pages.
Nationally, I have led Seminar 5 at the Norwegian Artistic Research School for several years. I have worked as editor and co-editor for various anthologies and journals and have served as an opponent and committee chair in assessments of PhD candidates and professorial promotions both nationally and internationally.
BIO
Michael Francis Duch (b. 1978) was born and raised in Trondheim and plays the double bass. He is a member of the editorial committee for VIS – Nordic Journal for Artistic Research and an alumni member of the Young Academy of Norway.
Duch completed his three-year period as an artistic research fellow at the Department of Music, NTNU, with his defense on October 30, 2010. His project, “Free Improvisation – Genre and Method,” explored free improvisation and improvisation-based experimental music.
He has contributed to over 80 releases in various formats, including several solo albums, and has performed 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, premiering several solo pieces written specifically for him and releasing multiple albums featuring new composed music.
His main interest lies in experimental contemporary music, particularly the Anglo-American tradition of the 1950s and ’60s, with composers such as Cornelius Cardew, John Cage, Christian Wolff, and Pauline Oliveros.
Duch regularly performs with SiTron (Trondheim Sinfonietta) and Alpaca Ensemble. He is also active in various other constellations, including a trio with John Tilbury and Rhodri Davies, the improvisation 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 numerous renowned musicians, including Pauline Oliveros, Mats Gustafsson, AMM, George Lewis, Christian Wolff, Tony Conrad, and Joëlle Léandre.
