1 “Rather healing and mesmerising and at times comical! At moments very beautiful at moments jarring, mostly very listenable, occasionally a bit unpleasant. Always unexpected!
2 “Wow! What a stupendous soundscape these amazing choirs produced. A really captivating evening of polyphonic music with much heart and soul from all the singers. MORE PLEASE!”
3 “I love all improvisation – give them the dosh so we go on being inspired! I find that being-ness in soundscapes, textures, rhythms, feeling -daring to risk; shake out those feelings. Orgasmic!”
4 “A beautiful and eclectic range of styles. I love the spontaneity and fun of the TOC, great
solos. Lovely sonic dialogue between Lora and Patrick.”
5 “I absorbed the splendour at the end of TIC 3rd piece like a new born being offered to the heavens. The intricacy and beauty of some of the pieces as like a treat being unwrapped along the game of pass the parcel. I am an inspired fan. Yours forever, Kate (p.s ‘Through the Veil’ had a spooky beauty to it. Absolutely stunning. Loved the use of the quote – ring the bells etc. )”
6 “Great. Best improvised voices I have heard. Cleveland Watkiss was a great catalyst!”

17 “Very enjoyable and surprisingly beautiful and creative with style. Mmmmm….great!”
18 “A very different experience tonight. More lucid and absurd in general, TIC particularly ‘tight’ I felt. Guest Cleveland Watkiss was the ‘bonus ball’ and lifted everything. Composition ‘Crack in Everything’ was bliss. Well Done!”
