This song cycle is a fine piece which uses an interesting combination of non-harmonic chordal
progressions on the piano with a free melodic vocal line which put the emphasis on the drama in
the expressive poems by Artur Schutt. This is quiet, psychological music, imaginative harmonically,
meant to portray an intense inner drama.” (Robert Kameczura, Classical Music Critic
Chicago). (Soprano or Mezzosoprano).
