Ackompanjeringslista

Ackompanjeringslista is a term used in Swedish and Norwegian contexts to denote a list of accompaniments that accompany a main item, activity, or performance. The word derives from ackompanjera ("to accompany") and lista ("list"), and is used to describe a prepared inventory or plan of supporting elements.

In music, an ackompanjeringslista is a document that specifies the accompanying parts for a performance. It may outline which instruments or voices provide the accompaniment, entrances and cutoffs, cues, and balance considerations, and is often used by conductors, accompanists, and rehearsal staff to coordinate a piece where a soloist or principal singer is supported by an ensemble.

In gastronomy and hospitality, the term can refer to a list of accompaniments designed to accompany a main course. This may include side dishes, sauces, garnishes, condiments, or beverages intended to complement the main dish, and is used by chefs and service staff for menu planning and standardization.

In event and production contexts, an ackompanjeringslista can be a schedule of supporting acts, performers, or equipment that accompanies a primary event or performance. It helps allocate responsibilities, timing, and logistics.

Origins and usage: The term is associated with Scandinavian language usage and reflects general linguistic roots rather than a single standardized definition. It is sometimes used in professional contexts such as music programming, catering, and event planning.
