 Review
The first piece, The Message Of The Titmouse, starts in the manner of the whole album, with the choir building up complex vocalese chords with multiple glissandi, acapella, but breaks out into a text sung at full volume. The title piece is more typical, still the acapella vocalese, but introduced by a solo violin which also glissondoes before skittering about in all directions, followed by the solo soprano. The violin and cello then introduce a typical theme, "The" Vasks theme, upon which the choir part builds. A couple of 'false endings' has the choir start again quietly before building to a climax. The soprano can be heard very faintly in the background, going where no woman has gone before. The coda has a subito p. fading al niente. I find this all very beautiful.
