"...There is a unified atmosphere throughout the album, which I find very sympathetic. It's like watching a story or reading a book that I can't put down. I listened to the album many times and all the time I felt it was worth listening to from beginning to end rather than picking out one song.
Renáta Hervoly's voice plays with melodies and rhythms with an airy lightness. I am reminded of Billie Holiday - not because of her sound or the melody, but of that primeval energy, playfulness, the airy lightness of singing and innate talent I mentioned earlier."
