Description:
. . . a genuinely atmospheric, highly allusive, tautly organized suite of dance references. Maw's titles and tempo indications suggest a fashionably vampiric nightmare, but the music sounded warm and lyrical as often as cold and frenzied. . . the chill chimes of small cymbals and the gentle plunking of a kalimba became the essential components of a transfigured epilogue. John Henken, Los Angeles Times, 2 December 1992, Instrumentation: fl(=picc+afl+manjeera).cl(=Ebcl+bcl+manjeera+kazoo) -pno(=manjeera+kalimba) - vln(=manjeera+strum stick).vlc(=manjeera+flexatone)
