Background: Act is the première recording on Ondine of Norvegian composer Rolf Wallin, a figure of increasingly international renown who celebrates his 50th birthday in 2007. He studied in Oslo with Finn Morthensen and Olav Anton Thommessen and later at the University of California where his teachers included Roger Reynolds and Vinko Globokar.

Wallin's music combines an intuitive freedom with a rigorous mathematical approach, such as use of fractal algorithms to construct melody and harmony, resulting in a music that often hints at the influence of Ligeti, Xenakis and Berio.
