Press Reviews "The focus and beauty of the work stunned me."--The Seattle Weekly“Fisher has pulled off an unlikely feat: a Medieval-style mystery play which has the feel, the faith, the strength, and the simplicity of the original genre.” --The Seattle Weekly“A strong, disturbing score…Fisher creates a sense of foreboding and dread that builds as the work progresses.”--The Seattle Post-Intelligencer“The music was haunting and the integration of movement skillful.”--The Seattle Post-Intelligencer“Fisher’s music is as controlled, narrowly focused and dramatic as his libretto.”--The Seattle Times“A hypnotic work of simple beauty and divine inspiration.” --Angel Records"Fisher brings a fresh voice to the new millenium."--Sony Classical
