"...the audience kept asking for more, shouting bravo and rising to their feet..." -- le Journal de Quebec
"World Class! ...a globe-circling sound... The music brings universal understanding across borders." -- The Boston Globe (MA)
"Seven women from New England, all with an expansive view of world music, come to town with a collection of acoustic instruments that you may need a dictionary to keep track of...If Mars had a musical tradition, theyd probably be on top of that as well." -- Santa Cruz Sentinel (CA)
"Anyone who enjoyed the recent `Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares' recordings should enjoy Libana, for not only does the group achieve the same haunting vocal harmonies, it also provides far more variety." -- The Washington Post (DC)
"There's something otherworldly about the beautiful, ethereal singing of Libana..." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune (MN)
"But the musical heart and soul of the show (Christmas Revels) is the six-woman ensemble Libana, Boston-based world music specialists whose close, penetrating harmonies and intricate rhythms were riveting." -- The Boston Globe (MA)
"For starters there is Libana, the womens world music chorus. To have a sextet of strong, culturally knowledgeable voices at the center of this show (Christmas Revels) is such a boon. Libana has been around for 28 years, and its haunting, powerful voices cant help but lead the community chorus in attitude and Balkan panache." -- The Boston Herald (MA)
