“I have seen the film many times but viewing the film with Acher’s music was like seeing the film for the first time. During the screening my gaze moved constantly between the screen action and Acher’s image standing and playing at the edge of the stage, dressed in a masculine suite and hat, and my wandering gaze enhanced the unsettling feeling that Wien’s film inspires in its spectators.”

Viggo Mangor Discography at CD Universe
Production: Yael Acher “KAT” Modiano.
“The emphasis here appears to be on evoking the spiritual realm more than the motions made there….’Flute Soundscapes’ offers the key to describing these pieces. Added percussion, electronic manipulation, and sound effects too abstract to describe contribute to the music. Extended playing techniques such as simultaneous singing and playing, air attacks with no tone, bending pitches, and glissandos are fundamental to the sound palette. The tone quality in these pieces is great well centered, and deployed with much variety.” By Gorman, CD Review- Guide to Records, American Record Guide. May/June issue, 2021, USA.
