Elis Hallik: Born in Waves

"Born in Waves is Estonian composer Elis Hallik's first album, a gateway into the sounds and thoughts of an original artist. The album mainly features chamber compositions that represent important ideas from her oeuvre over the past decade.

A versatile soundscape unravels before the listener through nine pieces, shaped by composition studies in Estonia and France, and in particular by her contact with the expressive means of spectral and electronic music.

At the heart of her musical thought are sound and its various characteristics, the comparison or fusion of pure and distorted sound through extended playing techniques, and timbre and harmony as a building material." - Kristina Korver
