My favourite piece on this disc by far is Sarah Hopkins 'Cello Chi', a melancholy piece which sets up drones over which the cellist overtone sings, before moving to more melodic material and then back to overtones. Very rich.

Alvin Lucier's 'Indian Summer (1993)', showcases difference tones between two closely tuned strings. A difficult listen for some, but give it time and you may become fascinated by the acoustic beating.

Kaija Saariaho's 'Petals' veers between melodies and harsher sounds, all quite heavily processed.  N. Sean William's 'Come Window Golds Coming' moves ever so slowly, rising from silence and falling back into it. And Ronald Halier's 'UITT (particolare)' takes a single gesture and examines it with a microscope, sounding rather un-cello-like. More like a window washer scrubbing a really stubborn spot. A nice showcase for Krieger's talent. I'd love to hear him improvise.
