## Press

A fine, committed performance (...). Ondine's sound is of demonstration quality. Recommended.

Guy Rickards, Gramophone, April 2000

Among present-day Scandinavian composers, the Finn Pehr Henrik Nordgren is clearly an important, urgent voice. (...) Disturbing, intermittently impressive music, excellently performed and vividly recorded.

Calum MacDonald, BBC Music Magazine, March 2000, Performance*** / Sound ***
