 "This is a brilliant, animated stretch of music ... some episodes are whirling, some lyrical. There is exuberance both in the invention of incidents and in the scoring, which makes striking use of different combinations...-Me prolific Wuorinen is in good form. He brims with lively ideas. He effortlessly commands - and combines - a diversity of techniques. A big generous creativity pours through." The New Yorker
