About the music of Ellen Lindquist
“Ellen’s music, subtle and refined, is highly expressive and yet free from cliché. Her compositional voice is striking and immediately captures the attention of the listener.”
—Alan Bise, Producer, Azica Records
“Ellen Lindquist has developed a unique and highly organic way of working with musicians when they commission a piece from her, and the result is compelling. In her creative process, she focuses on finding balance between three elements, or ‘voices’: the ‘voice’ of the instrument (the possibilities represented by the instrument itself), the voice of each musician through his or her instrument, and her own voice as composer. Through the process of searching for this balance, the language of the piece emerges. Ellen’s music, subtle and refined, is highly expressive and yet free from cliché. Her compositional voice is striking and immediately captures the attention of the listener.”
