Although this made her an instant basketball star, LOVE IN THE TIME OF MARCH MADNESS follows her hilarious and awkward misadventures in romance as she dates shorter men and gets cheered or jeered wherever she goes.

It is a cement scar that has provided motorists easy access to Manhattan since the 1950s. Some densely populated environments of Queens and Brooklyn have been sacrificed for this accessibility however, and the highway’s presence has rendered the surrounding streets neglected and dangerous. Mostly blocked out by sound and snow barriers, motorists sit in traffic atop neighborhoods they can’t see, creating spaces that are to be endured rather than experienced.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1452285171240-JOJI0NRR37IPSZNYFBS4/image-asset.jpeg Portfolio Content - Lady of the Ruins This action-packed CGI short was created by Matt Nava, the art director behind acclaimed video games Journey and Flower.

Inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche’s concept of Eternal Recurrence and Arseny Tarkovsky’s poem, Eurydice, the film exposes a dissonance between linearity and memory, form and nothingness, dream and impotence. A woman tied to landscape moves in tension with what she once was or what she longs to be. It is an impossible dream, but through the facets of moving picture her failure produces art at the intersection of imagination and physicality. The distance and intimacy of the camera, an uncanny contrast between digital and film formats, and the starkness of a human body moving in immersive architectures of sky and earth produce eternal images through which we may also recognize our finitude. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1452295298063-KG01X63F70WB69ID7MCQ/image-asset.jpeg Portfolio Content - Google x Patagonia | Freedom to Roam https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1452284021068-KYV4MVLAA2E5KAKDPJRJ/image-asset.jpeg Portfolio Content - Disney Nature | Wings of Life Alternate Promo Trailer for Disney Nature: Wings of Life   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1452721030498-33UQMN4OA6VZLN71NHKP/image-asset.jpeg Portfolio Content - Sound Orb – Feel the Music Imagine touching sound itself: The undulations of a cello solo, the impact of a kick drum, the explosion of a thunder clap. Conceived and constructed by composer Albert Behar, the Sound Orb bridges the gap between hearing and feeling. Within each 10-inch diameter Sound Orb is a powerful tactile transducer that converts sound into physical energy. This energy travels through the wooden sphere and resonates the audience member’s hands and body. The result is an unforgettable synesthetic experience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1583758266583-9VQ2HT6BWKQ8DLDRK4YS/image-asset.jpeg Portfolio Content - .TV https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1507303143935-R7NWQYWMSN5DVZWR1S8M/image-asset.jpeg Portfolio Content - Those Quiet Evenings "Those Quite Evenings" is a meditative piece inspired by the oboist and vocalist Theodosia Roussos. I was fascinated by the sonic connection between the english horn and the voice, both rich with double reed resonance. The backing track adds accordion to the mix to blend the voice and english horn into an imaginary instrument. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1507303311359-99040IL76JH6TK2CNFL7/image-asset.jpeg Portfolio Content - Calligrammes - a song cycle of visual poetry Calligrammes is a new song cycle for soprano (Ariadne Greif) and accordion (Albert Behar) that celebrates the 100-year anniversary of Guillaume Apollinaire’s visual poetry. Inspired by cubism, Apollinaire broke free from linear text and set his poems in the shapes of doves, carnations, and stopwatches. Behar’s compositions take this poetic spontaneity to new ground, creating an otherworldly space between Apollinaire's world and ours. Featuring costumes by Gretchen Vitamvas. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1507303353456-CQX5X1PT5QZPJIY1ZTFW/image-asset.jpeg Portfolio Content - Your Sympathy "Your Sympathy" is a piece written by composer Albert Behar for the overtone harp, an instrument built by Andy Cavatorta. The piano string harp are vibrated by custom magnets which create a lush metallic drone. Percussionist Amy Garapic also explores the natural resonance of the instrument with soft timpani mallets.   https://albertbehar.com/press daily 0.75 2017-10-09 https://albertbehar.com/press/2017/10/9/art-forum-tv-new-york-film-festival monthly 0.5 2017-10-09 https://albertbehar.com/press/2017/10/9/the-new-york-times-kronos-quartet-fosters-contemporary-works-for-strings monthly 0.5 2017-10-09 https://albertbehar.com/press/2017/10/9/i-care-if-you-listen-contemporaneous-shines-in-music-at-first-concert monthly 0.5 2017-10-09 https://albertbehar.com/press/2017/10/9/the-new-york-times-playing-with-acoustic-tension-at-entertaining-frequencies monthly 0.5 2017-10-09 https://albertbehar.com/press/2017/10/9/yq8eorv07vwjl5hoiee39nod3g0b2q monthly 0.5 2017-10-09 https://albertbehar.com/ma-petite-cherie daily 0.75 2025-02-04 https://albertbehar.com/film-tv daily 0.75 2024-02-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1493829049436-GLJBHCTZPH8WT3MY8SLY/custom-original-film-music-score-composer-soundtrack-reel.gif Film & TV https://albertbehar.com/contact-custom-film-music daily 0.75 2024-07-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/1452717125581-2N0QSDOCFH39BHAQIWWL/custom-original-film-music-score-composer-soundtrack-metronome.gif Contact https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5689ff4fa976af7af9acc26b/d9f8e258-d41d-4adf-b126-51f4895573fb/Albert-Behar-Composer-Film-New-York-Music-License-Custom-Scoring-Documentary-Underscore-Soundtrack-Portrait-Contact.jpg Contact -
