NORTH CAROLINA PREMIERE

“Time throughout Music speeds up and slows down, as the punctuation of violence gives way to a wash of the minor and everyday, which feel dreamlike in their lightness after the density of death.” ~ Shonni Enelow, Reverse Shot

“It’s a puzzle whose edges are complete but whose center, the parts of the picture most others would focus on, we have to imagine for ourselves.” ~ Pat Brown, Slant
