-Edinburgh Star

"...the four musicians tooted, blew, plucked...and the capacity audience clapped, whistled and sang tra-la-la...the normally austere atmosphere of the Purcell Room, at the Royal Festival Hall, has echoed to the applause..."

​"Pomerantz’s voice is ideal for this form of folk music — a rich baritone capable of broad proclamations, as in the Hebrew blessing over wine and fruit while maintaining the lyrical qualities of more nuanced passages, particularly the Romanian lullaby Durme, durme, or the Balkan love-song Pasharo D’ermozura... Jay Rosenberg and Lisle Kulbach showed remarkable proficiency on a variety of instruments that included ... the ‘ud, guitar, psaltery, violin and flutes, a mere snapshot of the musical traditions represented."
