"Composer and vocalist Erin Gee has created a unique musical style that has led to significant success on both sides of the Atlantic. In her series of pieces entitled Mouthpiece, she sings and speaks in hushed nonverbal sounds supported by subtle instrumental effects to project an intimate sound world, as if she were revealing her innermost but inscrutable feelings. The result is original, powerful, and haunting."
