Trios

"Of course the first fear I had when confronting a print-word manuscript from an essentially oral-, even "echo"-poet, was that multiplaner oral rotundity simply couldn't be transferred to a flat page -- but ... yes, Lurie's done it." -- Hugh Fox

"Toby Lurie focuses on performance, on three distinct strands which interplay and juxtapose their meanings contrapuntally. Three voices are used, none of which has a constant and predetermined character: if three readers perform the pieces, the readers each supply a personality, superimposing this over Lurie's materials. . . . Listening to the Trios what is striking is how natural they sound. They work." -- Dick Higgins
