...Minor Nocturne and Rachmaninoff's Vocalise--the second of which she orchestrated--are clearly the work of a gifted artist. Her tone is warm and focused, her interpretations restrained yet quietly intense. No less striking are her own compositions, especially Sketches from the Catwalk, a set of laconic, minimalist-flavored cameos in which a genuinely personal voice can be heard...
...grave markers. It's a tranquil hymn to loss and absence, evoking the sense of departed souls who once sat among us. Its thoughtfulness is a respite from so much brazen shouting, and like a good deal of her art, it can be enjoyed as much for the minimalist pleasure of its simple, rhythmic shapes as for the stories it conjures...

Shagadelic--what's that? Jar Jar Binks--remind me. Ricky Martin--isn't he Dino's kid? For this moment (and treasure it, because it may vanish as fast as it materialized), Blair Witch is the must-attend social event for plugged-in America...
