Beschreibung:
... it was the eerie beauty and uncanny originality of the music that made the dominant impression on me. The scoring is remarkable - for a sort of 'alienated' folk band . . . There are passages of ethereal delicacy, silken slowness, but these are contrasted with sudden fierceness, as in Benjamin's recent orchestral Palimpsests. Bass timbres are beguiling, the tutti sound is at once bizarre and delectable: I wanted more of it. ' The Sunday Times (Paul Driver), 3 December 2006
