Gloriously invigorating . . . presented with precision, personality, individuality, and yet also an attractive sense of intimacy. Joyfully nuanced . . . delightfully clear. . . . It's hard not to dance . . . stunning . . . mesmeric . . . . Cut Circle's superb energy is quite addictive.

There is no room here for error, but, fortunately, we never hear one. The singers all exhibit an amazing sense of control; in lesser hands, or lungs, these works would run out of steam halfway through, but the breath, tone, and phrasing are superb.

Astonishing virtuosity—absolute accuracy, infallible rhythmic precision, and a perfect balance of voices . . . performances . . . striking for their naturalness and . . . vocal beauty . . . life emerges from each note . . . exceptionally high-quality interpretations of rich and complex polyphony . . . a permanent enchantment for the listener.   Sound 10 - Booklet 10 - Repertoire 10 - Interpretation 10 – "Joker"

The opening syllable is . . . a collective wail of grief that . . . invites, even demands, the listener to participate. The closely miked ambience, the sparse use of vibrato, and the [full texting] . . . draw the listener further into this intimately personal space.

Radically different . . . [Cut Circle] challenges the predominant sonic aesthetic.
