Adresseavisen: «A masterpiece»
After the premiere at Voss in 2011, Avisa Hordaland wrote;
«The mix of Latin, Norse and Sami texts in combination with Frode Fjellheim's genre and cross-border world music blended so well together. So natural that you mostly began to wonder why not all masses through all time were written in this way. "

New CD!
Hildegunn Øiseth's fellow musicians on this record fascinated her with their playing playing already in the nineties when she toured with them in the Bohuslän big band. Then they meet again for some hot days in Valencia where they exchange songs and a brand new joy of playing. The nuanced album has been characterized by both Iberian and Nordic tone color. It grows out of the meditative tone from the previous album, Stillness, whirls up rawer rhythms along the way, at the same time as it draws up the exciting path further.

«Med joik som utgangspunkt» på HiNT 2013-14 er et studium utviklet av Frode Fjellheim og kanskje det eneste høgskolestudiet i verden der studentene får jobbe med joik som utgangspunkt for å skape ny musikk.
At the bottom of this is a solid introduction to yoik as a musical expression - and a basic introduction to Sami culture. Students can create their own yoiks, use elements from traditional yoik in new contexts and learn how Europe's oldest living music tradition can give you new musical ideas for your own music. the only university program in the world where students get to work with yoik as a starting point for creating new music.
Studiet har tidligere hatt studenter som har vært artister, lærere, administrative ansatte i kultursektoren og selvsagt musikkstudenter som tar dette som en del av en musiker eller musikklærerutdanning.
