Editorial Reviews
Bernard Holland, New York Times
Her slow-paced and soothing music seemed intent on filling the high-ceilinged space with different densities of sound.

Bill Tilland, Option
Leach is not messing around with the properties of sound; she's exploring the aesthetic, even spiritual power of sound.”

Album Description
The works of Mary Jane Leach explore the physicality of sound, working very carefully with the timbres of instruments, creating combination, difference, and interference tones. Space is also an important concern: how sound changes when it is moved around a room. Celestial Fires features the New York Treble Singers, Virginia Davidson-conductor, performing four 8-part pieces for a capella women’s voices; Shannon Peet performing Feu de Joie for 7 bassoons; and Barbara Held and Ms. Leach performing Trio for Duo for alto flute and voice.
