This recording does not simply feature a young percussionist offering a virtuoso materialistic battle on her debut GENUIN CD but instead creates a cinematically strange new world: bizarre illumination, enchanting cicada sounds and rattling bones await the listener in Sabrina Ma's Playtime!. The winner of the German Music Competition is presented on this Primavera CD series as a mature, imaginative artist. Works by the great contemporary composers Steve Reich and Brian Ferneyhough are offered as well as music by lesser-known artists, including world premiere recordings composed especially for this recording. A mixture of styles that goes off the beaten track, brilliantly played!

The Examiner
"The result is a jazzy quality to her rhetoric that tends to sharpen focus on the many things she can do with her instruments."
