Ellen Burr's deftly twisted flute and voice mixtures - sometimes sounding like 2–1/2 musicians in one body.

[…] Any reservations the listener might have regarding solo flute playing are overcome by Burr's grasp of dynamics and her willingness to explore the full potential of her instrument [...]. Ultimately Ellen Burr's music comes across as that of a restless and questing spirit in the best sense of the notion. The thought of more of it on disc is nothing but an enticing one, and the sooner it comes the better.
