PLEASE HELP FUND A FINAL PRODUCTION OF THIS MOVIE, HERE!

From the young and talented director Ingo Biermann’s site:
A cinematic feature documentary about Norwegian composer and performer Maja Ratkje. It is not only the portrait of a singular musician and singer, but the film will explore the sound and the nature of the human voice in all its facets.

Thank you! :D
I love it!
I am really looking forward to this film.
Hi! I know which one it is. It’s on this record: Passing Images released on ECM in 2007. Thanks!
Maja, thanks for the reply.
I listened to ET OS, and it is wonderful. But, unfortunately, it is not the piece I was inquiring about.
I was looking for the piece that starts at 4 minutes and 40 seconds in the video. I love the melody, and I can’t get it out of my head.
Yes, absolutely beautiful! Ser ut som om det kommer til å bli den vakreste og mest inspirerende dokumentar! Så flott! Håper du roper høyt og i god tid om når og hvor den skal sendes! Nydelige er dere, hele gjengen!
Hi, many thanks! The piece is aopn a disk with Trondheim Sinfonietta, the CD is called Snowblind, it features composers from that region in Norway: Trøndelag. And my piece is called ET OS. It’s with a reader too. I am conducting after the text in my headphones.
Absolutely beautiful. Wonderful work.
Is there a recording of the strings piece starting at 4:40 in the video?
your family shots are hypnotising, thank you.
Dear Maja,
seems like a very interesting project; can’t wait for the final result.
Keep up the good job!
Many thanks, and congratulations for being the first person to leave a comment:-)
