"Breathing the spirit of the rural Swedish way of life, her compositions resonate poetry of written works that Flick uses merely as blueprint to adapt it respectfully to her own variety of artistic expression. It adds an additional dimension to the CD that many of the original melodies, collected by Birgitta Flick as onset for her pieces, are part of the long musical tradition of Dalarna." - Angela Ballhorn, Jazzthetik 5/2016 The network of polyphone music with the unusual use of the voice would already be exciting without the historic and geographic reference.
