Press Quotes
"Ito's score is excellent; it combines elements of Irish folk music, non-specifically "ethnic" drumming, traditional Japanese elements, and Western neo-Classicism wound seamlessly together in a fabric that drapes Erdman's play as comfortably as a chiffon robe would drape a dancer. Another interesting fact about it as music is that it appears as though this piece was performed live for this recording -- a departure for Ito as he almost always used tapes for theatrical productions." - Uncle Dave Lewis
