"this disc is as groundbreaking and as hugely valuable as her newman adaptations were regrettable. this is what grammys, it seems to me, ought to be for. what you have here sung by vitro is music by clare fischer, a great jazz composer whose complex and difficult melodies and gorgeous songs are perfect for vitro’s abundant gifts as a jazz singer [...] what she hopes to do, she says, is introduce fischer to the repertoire of many more jazz singers. with what she does here – along with pianist mark soskins [sic] and violinist sara caswell – she may wind up doing just that. an important disc, whether she succeeds or not."
