Waterfall concert!


Look out for the up coming waterfall concert in Hardanger, Norway.

Ice concerts reviews

Musikken og stemningene er helstøpt, og bærer i seg en sensibilitet for naturens tilstand om vinteren.
http://www.ballade.no/nmi.nsf/doc/art2008020814521332588235

It's a chiming, intimate and utterly beautiful world of sound that entrances as much as it avoids any notion of 'novelty'.

Likevel vet du at Terje Isungset har truffet noe med sin ismusikk, da du tar deg i å få gåsehud.

the percussion is the real treat musically, sparse and reverent, of an intense purity.Pretty unique.

Resultatet er eksotisk, imponerende og grenseløst originalt.
http://www.nordlys.no/kultur/musikk/article3346344.ece

Med denne plata lever Terje Isungset opp til ryktet han har fått som en av kongerikets mest nyskapende perkusjonister.

Det er noe veldig norsk, og magisk over soundet på platen.
http://www.ta.no/pulsen/Musikk/cd/article3312632.ece

Det er så uendelig vakkert, så personlig og ekte
http://arkiv.side2.no/Nyhet/284940/Ismannen.html

it's a fascinating, atavistic, other- worldly experience to hear Isungset "liberate" these haunting, enigmatic sounds from nature at its harshest and put them at the service of art - and beauty.
