 Notes & Reviews Back to Top 
"Both of these works are improvisational in style and make occasional use of motifs borrowed from famous music... Marga Richter has always been one of my favorite composers because of her unswerving pursuit of maximum passion in her works. She goes directly for the heart every time and usually hits square on... This work is pretty well described by its current title...There are passages for full orchestra, for trio alone and against full orchestra, and extended soliloquies for each of the solo instruments. I enjoyed the work on first hearing and find it growing on me with each additional hearing.
Howard Harris describes Musicke for Dauncing Judicially (to give it a short title) as “jazz influenced”, but if like me that raises an alarm bell for you, don’t be concerned. The jazzy interludes are no jazzier nor more frequent that in Hindemith, and the structure of the music is sound and convincing. While it does not aim so deep in feeling as the Richter, this work is very entertaining; you will look forward to hearing it again."
