Composer Maija Hynninen (b. 1977) is working in the areas of concert music, electronic instrument design and multidisciplinary performances. The essence of her music builds on the unique moments where the parameters of this world are slightly altered to allow a glimpse of another reality to be present. It can be a moment where the timbre of purely acoustical writing gives surprising results or when electronics project sounds into another domain, another space and reality.

"Musical breaking of dawn for Maija Hynninen"... "cleverly written electro-acoustic works are large and strenuous, but also fragile and heartfelt."

"Acoustic elements in all of the works overlap with Hynninen's self-produced electronic audio. The end result is a natural electroacoustic coexistence and interaction."
