"...when (soprano Victoria Hansen) sings along with the Bowed Piano Ensemble expect the walls to melt down again as you return to the almost primordial atmosphere guaranteed to enrapture."

New Music Box (American Music Center online journal)



"...a well-written, highly communicative expression of a strong, haunting idea. I'd love to hear it again."
