A QUIET REVOLUTION: The Story of Windham Hill Records

Filmmaker Tal Skloot has recently announced a campaign to fund the completion of a feature documentary on the history, achievements, and groundbreaking sounds of Windham Hill Records. Will Ackerman, Barbara Higbie, Michael Manring, Mike Marshall, Alex De Grassi and many others are participating and are interviewed on camera. The award-winning filmmaker has produced over 25 documentaries. He knows and loves the music and personalities who made it.

If funded, the film will be available for streaming, download, and DVD. Additionally, funders can select posters and t-shirts, as well as special experiences like a visit to Will Ackerman’s Imaginary Road Studios, sessions with Alex De Grassi, a song by Phil Aaberg, and more.
