"...[Patric Standford] created his own positive, certainly individual cocktail involving a dash of Stravinskian bite here, a shake of Eastern European rhythm there. The result played with the energy and commitment the ensemble had demonstrated throughout, was a virile, optimistic and entertaining divertimento notable particularly for its memorable, whirling first movement and its high voltage finale."
