I found tr.6, The Mothers of Brazil, an arrangement by Gunnar Eriksson of a piece by the jazz pianist Lars Jansson, with saxophone accompaniment, particularly attractive. The choir in their part-singing, with 'sotto voce' effects, give a varied, even contrapuntal variation; most appealing. Immediately following (tr.7) Curse Upon Iron, with its percussion beat, echoed in the voices, was contrasting and exciting. (Robert J Farr, 2002-12-02)

/---/ they move on to the music of modern Baltic and Scandinavian masters. Arvo Pärt’s mystical Magnificat and Veljo Tormis’s folk-toned ‘Curse on Iron’, a setting of a rune from the Kalevala, get striking and thoughtful performances. The latter work’s ancient theme resonates strongly in today’s uncertain world, speaking of the likelihood of anything that man creates turning against him, unless it is used with respect and ethical forethought.
