"Die Stunde des Wolfs Part 1 (1989; for Bergman)"

Seeing "Vargtimmen" (The Hour of the Wolf, 1968) by Ingmar Bergman as a 20 year old left me speechless.
Inspired by this film, i then created a composition in six parts.
"Die Stunde des Wolfs" is featured on the 1997 album "REIZ TRIGGER: Fragment Research".
Part one was used for the polish documentary "Moze to grzech, ze sie modle" in 1993.
Ingmar Bergman died July 30th.
