Kyle Gann, Village Voice, May 20, 1997:
"... writes confrontationally personal music along sexual themes ... the same kind of spritual revolution that John Cage ... did here 30 years ago.
The work "Sexo" for female narrator/performer and orchestra is an passionate examination of all the taboos and all the advantages and disadvantages involved with sexuality. A poetic explosion of feeling, emotions, sexual fantasies and deep mystical and metaphysical thought. "Sexo" is in fact an imaginary journey that the listener experiences or undertakes together with the narrator."
