"Together with [sound designer Tuomas] Norvio, costume, lighting and set designers Erika Turunen, Fabiana Piccioli, and Sander Loonen, Saarinen has created a compelling way to make the synesthetic world of Saariaho—known for blending sensory perceptions—concretely experienceable. The Austrian premiere of Study for Life—met with enthusiastic applause by the Bregenz audience—proved to be a genre fusion at its finest.” APA News Service, Christa Dietrich (Austria)
