The best of this year's new works, When You Think You're Looking, by Deirdre
Gribbin is an exploration of the experience of displacement and incarceration. The
words have intensity, the four strings providing vivid scene setting and responses. It
fleshes out in sound a world of the feelings of real people suffering the
consequences of oppression.
The Irish Times
"Deirdre Gribbin is a charismatic and intriguing new voice in contemporary
music."
