THE BOTTOM LINE - UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SANTA BARBARA

"The compositions were surprisingly fluid. The computer programs Vasconcellos used successfully performed with the emotional expression expected of a live performer. Some pieces were slower and more somber, some faster and jovial. However, the performance was distinctly electronic because it completely exceeded what we can expect a human performer to do. Most of the songs were impressively cluttered with notes, too many for a single person to be playing. At times the capabilities of the player piano and the programs used to operate it outshined the compositions themselves."
