ONLY SILENCE REMAINS
"Ott's compositions are shadowy and minimal, the melodies subtly sketched, and arrangements given space and light. It makes for a set that rewards repeated listens"
THE SKINNY (UK)
"Il est des musiques instrumentales parfois bien moins muettes qu’elles n’y paraissent. Elles n’en sont pas pour autant des illustrations pour combler les silences ou abolir le vide. Christine Ott, avec son second album, "Only Silence Remains" investit des territoires nouveaux, ceux où planent les spectres d’une musique classique accueillante."
POPNEWS (FR)
"(...) 'Disaster' can be interpreted in numerous ways, akin to the conclusion of Elizabeth Bishop’s poem “One Art”.(...) The tempest ends, the wind subsides, the melodies tiptoe back into the sound field. Could Ott be writing about love? Could love be the last thing to leave before the final silence, or the first thing to fill its void? The answer lies in the ear of the beholder."
A CLOSER LISTEN (USA)
"It’s music for almost every moment and certainly ever mood, and in as many ways as I can think of, it’s fantastic."
ANTHEM REVIEW (AUS)
"Only Silence Remains is certainly of a standard that would sit comfortably on any film soundtrack, but in many ways, it’s above that kind of mass-market reduction of anything that’s vaguely classical in its form to ‘soundtrack’. Only Silence Remains is a magnificently singular work, and is also, in its own right, simply a magnificent work. (...) Ott demonstrates a musical intuition that’s truly exceptional. To describe or define the ways in which the music reaches in and touch the listener’s soul is nigh on impossible: it simply does. "
AURAL AGGRAVATION (UK)
"Entre caresses irréelles, maelströms grondants, souffles cosmiques et danses astrales, on sort de ce voyage musical ému et ébloui."
LES INROCKS (FR) + DANS LE HORS SERIE TOP ALBUMS 2016, 4,5/5
TABU ost
“Cursed Lagoon” is the standout of Ott’s creations. There is a darkness that creeps just below the surface (...)"
THE WIRE, ADVENTURES IN MODERN MUSIC
"To strive ~ whether romantically or musically ~ is to achieve a certain nobility, no matter what the eventual outcome; here, Ott restores dignity to doomed love." A CLOSER LISTEN
"Without peer, Christine Ott’s “Tabu” explores the subdued and the sublime."
BEATH SLOTH
"The movie is the conductor! For the intentions, the energy, but also for the tempi to use, the dynamic. Then I think there are no rules. Each movie gives its own life to the composition." CO
