Ms. Fleischer lectures in the Department of Musicology at Bar-Ilan University and in the Music Department of the Levinsky Institute, Tel Aviv. With roots in the cultural pluralism of the Middle East, her music is also firmly grounded in Western culture permitting a unique synthesis of East and West. She has written in nearly all musical forms, often blending Eastern and Western musical instruments, vocal styles, and even languages. Her sensitivity to color and sonority have been compared to that of Maurice Ravel and George Crumb. |
