press quotes

Moths
“Hasse possesses a
witty sonic imagination. With audience participation, her 1986 Moths amplifies different pitches and rhythms of many puckered lips making music.
The effect is stunning.”
- The Hartford Courant,
December 1987

Pulling
“a lovely piece for reverbed and echoed flutes”
- Village Voice, NY,
29 May 2001
