Reviews

“Peter Lodwick is a man of many talents. The composer who can do everything and in
addition plays live. His composition suits the message. He is sentimental, discreet and
attentive; he can hold back, he can give.”
From Klassekampens review of "Eva - fortellinger om kjærlighet"

“Peter Lodwick is an outstanding genius who can contribute immensely to our cultural life if he
gets the opportunity to unfold his talent in Norway.”
Gunnar Brunvoll, General Director of the Norwegian National Opera & Ballet

“Peter Lodwick is an incitement to our environment, an injection – erratic and unrelenting Welsh blood!”

VG

“Peter Lodwick’s music lashes out with its melodies assembled like a musical wedding bouquet.
With force, rhythm, raw, almost brutal power which in the next second becomes calm melodies,
the sweet song of the mind.”
From Arbeiderbladets review of “En gutts lykke”

 “The virtuosic music, written and performed by Peter Lodwick, was very seductive at times.

His range is overwhelming in Norwegian context. He moves from Baroque to church music,
country & western and akin to Kitaro. Serene and deafening, playful and longing. Both emotional and
composed in an attractive coalescence.
From Klassekampens review of “Poems” (received the Norwegian Critics Award)

“One rarely hears a piece of music so comprehensive and richly nuanced, which does
not only create an atmospheric soundscape for the dance, but which also has a direct
dialogue going with the dancer and becomes an actuation in the play. Peter Lodwick has not
only created good music for the stage, but music you want to hear again.”

From Aftenpostens review of “Poems” (received the Norwegian Critics Award)

Musicgenius! The music rarely touches you this powerfully in a dance performance.
Lodwick kept to a theme: subtle variations on tango, a dash of waltz, but always the
recurring. The vulnerable, emotional tone of longing and hope touched the audience,
simultaneously as it enhanced or contrasted the intense play and the dancing on the floor.”

From Aftenpostens review of "Lille Heidelberg"

Peter Lodwick’s song and music gave a fantastic setting….I have never before experienced
having trouble stopping the applause in order to thank…an exceptionally rich
and vibrant art experience that went straight to our heart.”

Tønsberg Blads review of “Voluspá”

“Peter Lodwick is a gifted and dynamic pianist and composer. Both rhythm and
melodies are brilliantly handled.”

From Eva Krøvels review of “Point Counter Point”

“Peter Lodwick’s music fills every fibre in your body!”

From Avisen Jarlsbergs review of “Munch – en reise i dans, musikk & billedkunst”

”The mood of the paintings were underlined by music billowing from the sorrowful to the
wondrously optimistic. This has to be experienced far across the borders of Norway!”

Fra Kragerøavisas omtale av “Munch – en reise i dans, musikk & billedkunst”

“Beautiful and enchanting music that struck us right at the heart.”

Fra Harstad Tidendes omtale av "Dans for Deg"

 “The young audience were spellbound by Peter Lodwick’s high level of music.”

From Laagendalspostens review of "Dans for Deg"

“A firework of musical pearls and surprises.”

From Dagbladets review of "Hånd i hånd"

“Peter Lodwick’s music is brilliant and it gives the play an extra dimension. The
combination of the music and the authenticity of the Norwegian fairy tales
makes the performance a true experience.”

From Aftenpostens review of "Trollspill"
