Their blend was impeccable, never overusing vibrato, and really knowing how to bring certain parts out that complemented Treys lead while also setting back and providing a homophonic base for Treys melodies. The Scorchio String Quartet played Quantum by the quartets leader and violist, Martha Mooke, with songful melodies accompanied by tremulous chords and Asian-flavored glissandos. - Jon Pareles, NY TimesOn I Would Be Your Slave, music and lyric collide to create arguably the most impressive track on all of Heathen. The lyric is a direct entreaty for God to appear and make his presence felt. The Scorchio String Quartet's rendering of Visconti's arrangement is faultless. - Review of David Bowie's Heathen CD from Peter Kearns, Misfit City
