"Each (dance) has Irish roots, with Desio piping traditional flute tunes and bouncing lyrically on his feet in the first and concluding sections. He unleashes his energy in frenzied jigs, like a hapless lad kicking stones and determinedly chasing after them. Offering contrast to his merriment, Reichlin dances a ripe, lush and sweeping solo, The Lark. And the ensemble of nine dancers performs a barefooted, heathen circle-dance that would not have been out of place among the Druids centuries ago; it is mythically transporting. Reichlin has a keen way with group dynamics, and both Celtic Suite and the program's finale, The Tennis Dances, fitted her dancers together in unexpected pairings, giving the evening a unique flavor. We hear the music better and gain insight to a world of Reichlin's own fashioning, whether it's Celtic rituals of yesteryear or her own vision of life played out symbolically with ... racquets used as swords, mirrors and triumphant banners."
