  • New York, New York | The American Organist, October 2013 (p. 75-76)

    The American Organist, reviewer Mr. James Hildreth: CD Jatamansi Due Solisti (Kathleen Scheided, organ, Zofie Vokalkova, flute) (2013: Raven, OAR-922, 58 minutes). Quoted in part: "These two fine musicians bring their estimable skills together to present higly integrated performances of little known but substantial 20th- 21st-century repertoire from Czechoslovakia, the United States, and Switzerland. [Lynn Job's] House of Jatamansi, commissioned by Due Solisti, is a six-part tableau that alternates narration and . . . [the] evocative music follows the narrative (sonorously spoken by lyric baritone John Cook) describing the progression of events through the evening: Twilight, Moonsong, Reverie. . . . The entire program (CD) is a fascinating exploration of variety of intreatment of modern tonality and musical style. Each of the works successfully yokes the two instruments, treating them as equals. . . .These rarely heard works will provide pleasurable listening, and attractive ideas for those seeking new "organ plus" repertoire."
    -- Mr. James Hildreth, CD Reviews, The American Organist

  • Cincinnati, Ohio | American Record Guide, September/October 2013 (p. 244-245)

    American Record Guide reviewer Mr. Todd Gorman: CD Jatamansi Due Solisti (Kathleen Scheided, organ, Zofie Vokalkova, flute) (2013: Raven, OAR-922, 58 minutes). Quoted in part: " It is not common to get programs of music for flute and organ. This release has original music that will be new to anyone. The performances by Czech flutist Zofie Vokalkova and American organist Kathleen Scheide are impeccable, and the sound is luscious. I found value in these selections that I believe flutists and organists would appreciate. . . . The three movements of Lynn Job's House of Jatamansi are introduced with narration. Job's style [here] is tonal and simple but appealing, and the pieces are not too long or too demanding to be welcome in a church service. The basis for the work is the story on John 12:1-8 of Jesus at the house of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. . . ." [this review discusses each piece on the CD, including the world premiere recording of the Polish holocaust victim, Yen Barabas.]
    -- Mr. Todd Gorman, CD Reviews, American Record Guide

  • Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA | March 14, 2013

    Review: CD Jatamansi Due Solisti (Kathleen Scheided, organ, Zofie Vokalkova, flute) (2013: Raven, OAR-922). Quoted in part: "I enjoyed hearing the music. Both performers are abviously very fine musicians. With House of Jatamansi, I'd frankly prefer it without the readings breaking up the music--I'd rather just have them printed in the program as needed. I particularly like the 3rd movement. I hope that the CD release leads to some good attention for your fine music." [NOTE: The score and parts make the readings optional elements for performance or audience programs. The readings on this CD were commissioned specifically for this CD, written by the composer, Lynn Job.]

    Abstractly Evocative: "What is more compelling and persuasive?

    "Through the many piles of new scores I see very year, I have never encountered a finer American composer of works for solo unaccompanied instruments than Lynn Job. Though Job has distinguished herself through a catalogue of compositions ranging from the very largest scale to the very smallest, she continues to make personal and tremendously compelling statements through the intensely difficult medium of unaccompanied solos. These are works to treasure."
