that´s a group of seriously lovely people!

In two scores [WOMEN TALKING and TAR], Hildur Gudnadóttir creates music ‘like a ghost’ and finds hope amid anger.
“Hildur’s original take on the music was magnificent,” says [Women Talking director] Polley, “and it was also part of her process of excising that grief and anger for what these women went through in order to land in a more expansive world of possibility.”
