Line 30: 1968 saw Arne Nordheim being bestowed with the [[Nordic Council Music Prize]] for his ''Eco'' for soprano, two choirs and orchestra. The work marks the start of a new development phase, in which Nordheim proved that he could create electrophonic-sounding timbres from conventional instruments.<ref>{{cite web \|url= http://www.norden.org/en/nordic-council/nordic-council-prizes/nordisk-raads-musikpris-1/previous-prize-winners-and-nominees/ \|title= Nordic Council Music Prize winners \|website= norden.org \|access-date= 2017-02-09 \|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20170518171102/http://www.norden.org/en/nordic-council/nordic-council-prizes/nordisk-raads-musikpris-1/previous-prize-winners-and-nominees \|archive-date= 2017-05-18 \|url-status= dead }}</ref> In 1970 he and sound engineer [[Eugeniusz Rudnik]] made the piece ''Poly-Poly'' for the Scandinavian ~~pavillion~~pavilion at [[Expo '70]] in Osaka.<ref>{{cite web\|url= http://asbjornflo.net/en/info/text/arne-nordheims-electronic-music\|title= Memorables - Arne Nordheims electronic music\|access-date=2021-03-08}}</ref> This sound installation consisted of six tapes of different lengths which are played in a loop, such that the piece will not repeat itself for 102 years. A 21-minute long concert version was released the year after, with the name ''Lux et Tenebrae''. Throughout his career, Nordheim would receive a number of commissions which would result in such works as ''Greening'' (1973) written for [[Zubin Mehta]] and Los Angeles Symphony Orchestra; the ballet ''Stormen'' (1979) for Schwezinger Festival in Germany; the cello concerto ''Tenebrae'' (1980) for [[Mstislav Rostropovitch]]; ''Aurora'' (1983) for vocal ensemble Electric Phoenix and the orchestral work ''Magma'' (1988) for the [[Concertgebouw Orchestra]] in [[Amsterdam]]. Additional major works include ''Wirklicher Wald'' (1983) for soprano, cello, choir and orchestra commissioned for the centenary anniversary for the Oslo Music Conservatory and ''Boomerang'' (1985) for oboe and chamber orchestra written for the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra. Line 36: ''Draumkvedet'' is a monumental stage work for orchestra, (acting) chamber choir, soloists and dancers, and was performed 40 times in 1994 with the Broadcasting Corporation Radio Orchestra and [[Grex Vocalis]]. A recording featuring these performing forces conducted by Ingar Bergby was made in 2001, and released in 2006 as a two-CD set on the Simax label (Simax PSC 1169). Based on a medieval Norwegian poem ([[Draumkvedet]], The Dream Song), the work was composed in honor of the millennium of the city of [[Trondheim]] in 1997.<ref>[http://loype.kulturminneaaret2009.no/kulturminneloyper/theme-the-stave-churches-around-the-sognefjord/kaupanger ''Kaupanger stave church'' (Kulturminneløypa) ] {{webarchive\|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724181522/http://loype.kulturminneaaret2009.no/kulturminneloyper/theme-the-stave-churches-around-the-sognefjord/kaupanger \|date=2011-07-24 }}</ref> Nordheim was a great admirer of playwright [[Henrik Ibsen]] and devoted time to study his life and literary output. Nordheim composed music for [[Den Nationale Scene]]’s's performance of [[Peer Gynt]]. On a number of occasions, Nordheim held talks titled “Thre composers' approaches to Peer gynt” which featured a highlight where [[Edvard Grieg]]’s's music for ~~Aase’s~~Aase's Death was sampled and spliced with ~~Nordheim’s~~Nordheim's own composition. Naturally, both composers had elected to compose their scores for this scene in b minor. To commemorate ~~Nordheim’s~~Nordheim's 70th birthday in 2001, a celebratory concert was held, featuring the [[Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra]]. The [[Norwegian ministry of culture and church affairs]] would also celebrate the composer, and established the Arne Nordheim ~~Composer’s~~Composer's Prize which is bestowed on an annual basis to a composer of Norwegian residence.<ref>{{cite web\|url= https://www.regjeringen.no/no/aktuelt/alfred-janson-tildelt-arne-nordheims-komponistpris-for-2016/id2510907/\|title= The Norwegian Ministry of culture on the Arne Nordheim ~~composer’s~~composer's prize \|website= regjeringen.no \|access-date=2017-02-09}}</ref> In later years, Nordheim suffered from dementia, and expired early on Saturday 5 June 2010, following a prolonged bout of illness. The state funeral was held at the Oslo Cathedral on the 16th of June.
