Little and Yotam Haber."〔http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/23/arts/music/mata-festival-at-roulette-in-brooklyn.html〕 During his final festival The New York Times further remarked "If there is one thing that sets the MATA Festival apart from many of the other contemporary-classical bounties New York regularly produces, it might be a robust international representation, which seems to have grown sharply since Yotam Haber — a Dutch-born global citizen and the festival’s artistic director from 2009 until this year — has been at the helm."〔http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/18/arts/music/mata-festival-returns-with-spotlight-on-helsinki.html〕 Haber's music has been well received, called "haunting" by ''New Yorker'' critic Alex Ross〔http://www.newyorker.com/online/2007/04/16/070416on_ross#ixzz260JP3awp〕 and the ''New York Times''.〔http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/16/arts/music/in-five-borough-songbook-20-composers-show-ny-review.html〕 The New York Times called Haber's ''From the Book of Maintenance and Sustenance'' "Alluring" and "Engaging" adding that "Mr. Haber used the soulful lower register of the viola to expressive effect, and its higher register to create intriguing timbres. Fluttering trills unfolded over lone piano notes; bell-like descending piano chords were echoed by gently ascending viola motifs. The piece faded to an enigmatic whisper at the end."〔http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/30/arts/music/at-the-stone-the-flux-quartet-flexes-its-muscles.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yotam Haber」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
