Sound is central in Tally’s creations. Her music is a flow of playful contrasts where a sense of humour and poetic use of sound are blended to mix. Beside writing works for contemporary music scene, she has composed music for films. In recent years, importance of orchestral music has increased in her oeuvre. Mirjam Tally is also performer of electroacoustic music: she has a duo "Unejõgi" ("Dream river") together with Estonian folk musician Meelika Hainsoo. Elements of Estonian folk music are mixed with electroacoustic sounds, with influences of minimalism, glitch, drone and electronic pop.

As a composer, Mirjam Tally evokes a very special sound world, magical and at the same time captivating, where there are no limits to the creative joy and imagination”.

Tally´s music has been performed in over 20 countries, including festivals Mixtur in Barcelona, Spain (2013), Dark Music Days on Iceland (2006, 2016, 2017), Summartónar on Faeroe Islands (2008, 2017), The Venice Biennale's International Festival of Contemporary Music in Italy (2008), ISCM World New Music Days in Lithuania, Sweden and Croatia (2008, 2009, 2011), Nordic Music Days on Iceland (2011, 2016), in Finland (2013), and in London (2017), Sound of Stockholm (2010-13), Svensk Musikvår (2017), Geiger festival in Gothenburg, Sweden (2012); several festivals in Estonia.

Molly Teleman, född 1982, är en svensk kompositör bosatt i Östergötland. Som barn spelade hon en kort tid trumpet och sedan violin, två instrument som hon övergav för att tio år gammal börja spela piano. I tonåren började hon även ta sånglektioner. När hon började på Musikgymnasiet DeGeer, en musiklinje med yrkesprofil, tog hon sina första kompositionslektioner för tonsättaren David Swärd. Hon fortsatte spela piano och sjunga, men komponerandet blev allt mer dominerande allt eftersom tiden gick.

Efter gymnasiet studerade Molly Teleman piano och komposition på Ingesunds Folkhögskolas Musiklinje, något som ledde vidare till kompositionsstudier på Musikhögskolan Ingesund för Sverker Magnusson. Efter fyra år i Arvika flyttade hon till Bergen, Norge, och Griegakademiet på Bergens Universitet. Hon studerade där för Morten Eide Pedersen i två år, med gästföreläsare som Kaija Saariaho och Bent Sørensen med flera. Molly Teleman tog sin bachelor i fine arts, composition 2007.

Efter examen återvände hon till sin hemstad Norrköping och studerade andra ämnen, som kulturjournalistik, idéhistoria, litteraturvetenskap och kreativt skrivande. Hon har varit aktiv som musik- och filmkritiker i Östergötland sedan 2007, i tidningar som Norrköpings Tidningar och ÖstgötaCorrespondenten.

Molly Teleman komponerar för alla akustiska ensembleformer, men är än så länge särskilt entusiastisk för kör och kammarmusik. Hennes musik har blivit framförd av ensembler som Forsvarets Musikkorps, Unge Musikere, Musikaliska Sällskapets Kammarkör, Östgöta Kammarkör, KFUM:s Kammarkör, Oskarshamns Folkhögskolas Kammarkör, bland flera. Hennes musik har dessutom framförts på Borealis Festival och Sound of Stockholm.

Hon är medlem i FST, STIM och KVAST. 

Stefan Thorsson (b. 1968) is a Swedish composer based in Berlin. He completed his Master studies in Composition in 2008 at the Academy of Stage and Music in Gothenburg and at the Hanns Eisler Academy of Music in Berlin, with the thesis project Dialogue Music: The Dead Angles of Contemporary Music. He works mainly with contemporary stage art, theater and film. Central to Thorsson’s process is a visual and musical exploration of the potential for his work to be infiltrated by other genres and times. Often in the form of experimental, improvisational projects that include diverse media, his works pose existential questions about music as a contemporary art form. Since 1998, Thorsson has collaborated with artists from other fields on some fifteen cross-disciplinary art projects. On his own, he has composed over thirty works, ranging from soloists and various chamber ensemble formations to larger choirs and orchestras. In tandem with his compositional practice, he writes reviews and essays for three magazines: KunstForum (visual arts), Scenekunst (performing arts) and Nutida Musik (contemporary music).

David Tudén (1991) är en frilansande kompositör utbildad vid Kungliga Musikhögskolan i Stockholm där han tog sin masterexamen 2020.
Hans musik och verksamhet undersöker ofta nya fält genom utommusikaliska berättelser och associationer. Bland dessa fältöverskridande verk är ”Plumones in utero” (2019) ett exempel. I verket möter musiken läsning  ur Emanuel Swedenborgs dagbok, inläst av Pär Hansson, vilken verkar i dialog med den antika romerska poeten Ovidius texter. David Har även samarbetat med Alkemisten Christer Böke för orkesterverket ''Chrysopoeia'' (2020) samt Marinbiologen och forskaren Christina Lin i verket ''Perpetual Becoming'' (2023).

Carl Unander-Scharin was born in Stockholm in 1964, studied at the Royal College of Music and at the University College of Opera in Stockholm where he acquired a Master of Fine Arts in Church Music in 1991. He studied organ under Hans Fagius, conducting under Eric Ericson, Gustaf Sjökvist and Jorma Panula, singing for Solwig Grippe, Hans Gertz, Nicolai Gedda, Erik Saedén and Gösta Winbergh, counter-point and musical theory for Lars-Erik Rosell and Per-Gunnar Alldahl. Between 1991 and 1995, Carl studied at The University College of Opera in Stockholm, where he acquiered a diploma in Operatic singing. Carl also holds a teacher's degree as well as a choral conductor's degree, both from the Royal College of Music in Stockholm. In 2015, Carl defended his PhD thesis "Extending Opera" at KTH The Royal Institute of Technology 

He has a parallel career as a composer and as a lyric tenor. Having sung roles at many Swedish venues such as the Folkoperan, Vadstena-Academy, and the likes, he was during 2000 to 2011 employed as a tenor soloist at the Royal Opera in Stockholm, where he appeared in 25 roles – such as Tamino (Mozart's "Die Zauberflöte"), Almaviva (Rossini's "Il Barbiere da Siviglia"), Raoul de Gardefeu (Offenbachs "La Vie Parisienne), Gonzalve (Ravels "L´heure Espagnole) and many more – all in all 355 performances. During 2009, Carl appeared as Nadir in Bizet´s "Les Pêcheurs de Perles" at Folkoperan, a rendering of this high and complicated role that was highly praised. Carl is continuously performing in concerts and oratorios, especially in Bach’s tenor parts, for example the passions and the oratorios. A rarely performed piece "Faust et Helène" by Nadia Boulanger, was staged by Malmö Opera during winter 2014 - with Carl performing as Faust. 

During the summer season 2018 at the Drottningholm Theatre, Carl performed as Francesco Gonzaga, a rendering of this complicated contemporary role (specifically composed for Carl´s voice by composer Djuro Zivkovic) that received critical acclaim. 

On two occassions, Carl has made extraordinary "jump-ins" in contemporary operatic music with short notice. In the spring of 2017, Malmö Opera needed immediate help in order to be able to perform K-B Blomdahl´s "Aniara" that same evening. Carl managed to learn the highly complicated part Cheftekniker 1 while travelling to Malmö in order to sing the part that same evening. The jump-in was highly acclaimed and Carl also sang the role on the subsequent performance, both of which where conducted by Tobias Ringborg. 

Also, in December 2008, Carl made a jump-in in SD Sandström´s "Batseba". The opera was to have its' first performance on the evening of December 13, and Carl was asked to learn the part as Amnon during the very afternoon of that day in order to save the performance. This was accomplished and the appearance (under the baton of Leif Segerstam) was successfull – and was also broadcast directly on radio. 

Carl has participated in 16 CD recordings both as a composer and as a tenor; most recently in recordings of music by Bach (b-minor mass 2015 under the baton of Ingmar Månsson) and the newly composed St John Passion by Fredrik Sixten (conducted by Ragnar Bohlin). For a full list of recordings by Carl Unander-Scharin, see: www.electronic-opera.com/publications_6

Serge Dmitriev Viluman is a Russian-Swedish Composer.

Born on the 15th of January 1964 in Novosibirsk, former USSR. Viluman lived in Moscow from 1971-91, where he graduated from the Tchaikovsky State Conservatory as a composer in 1991, after studies for Prof. Albert Leman and Prof. Nikolai Korndorf. In the beginning of 1992 Viluman moved to Sweden and attended the Royal College of Music in Stockholm as a post-graduate student, where he studied composition from 1992-97 for Prof. Sven-David Sandström. In December 1998 he became a Swedish citizen.

Aside from his work as a composer, he has also worked from 1990-91 as a teacher of music theory and composition at The Gnesins Musical College in Moscow. In Sweden, he has worked as a piano teacher at Nacka Music School 1998-99 and, in 1999 as a teacher of music theory at The Gotland School of Music Composition in Visby and The Music School Lilla Academy in Stockholm.

In his music, Viluman strives to unite the Russian dramatic shape with some aspects of the Western post-modern timbres (Magnifico, Circulation, Ostinato No.2 and Mirages) as well as to emphasise a processional sensation through the timing of music (Reminiscences of the Future, A Sign of the Times). He combines different stylistic directions and genre elements (contemporary music, jazz, pop, rock and folk) with his ambition to create an intelligible and affecting new serious music. There is often an individual in the center of his conception, who keeps leaving the old stage of his life in order to enter a new one, going through some self-metamorphosis (Away… and Towards…, Conversions, I long for the Newer-newer land, CornDoRF, Dreams from the Childhood, The Snow from my Childhood has thawed, Prophet ).

He has been represented along with other Swedish composers in two concert projects in Stockholm, organised by the Swedish Radio/P2: Rum i rummet ("Room in the room", May 1997) in collaboration with "KammarensebleN" (The Chamber Ensemble) and Nageln i örat ? (“Nail in the Ear?” Sept-Oct 1997) with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra. In October 1998 he was awarded first prize in the category "electroacoustic music with instruments or voice” at the 20th "Luigi Russolo" Competition in Varese, Italy, for his work CornDoRF, for the French horn and electronics. In 1999 December 1999 he was presented with a runner-up citation for the piece Hägringar (Mirages), for saxophone quartet, at the fourth Tokyo International Competition for Chamber Music Composition. In September 2000 his work “A Sign of the Times” for flute and organ was included into the Swedish contribution at the Festival “Nordic Music Days” in Lahti, Finland.
