Reviews.
Reviewer Herman Devries of the "Chicago American" noted, "[The ballet] is far above the average ballet music ... both in quality of invention and in the value of its themes and imagination. It is a highly-colored, vivid, evocative, gorgeous score." Another reviewer, Stuart R. Sabin of Rochester, wrote, "The music is charming, picturesque and dramatically suggestive, never padded, never divorced from the action, yet with an individual appeal of its own."
