...full-blooded, with especially rich, driving tone from the cellos. It was too bad the original idea of using recorders fell through, but no one could have wished for finer flute playing than that of Cynthia Crain and Fritz Kraber. Ruth Miller was mostly successful with the fiendishly difficult solo violin part, and the performance as a whole came within only a few slips in intonation of being masterful...

The characterizations are without exception sloppy and indistinct. In addition, Marker's blocking and use of Sanders Theatre stage are most unhappy. The bulk of the movement in the performance consists of ridiculous and histrionic stridings from one side of the huge, empty stage...
