New York Times: "Noh plays are able to conjure epic states. They are hypnotic, almost, in their ability to transport.
But no soaring arias or over-the-top special effects are used to create such theatrical effects. The plays’ sweeping power exists in direct proportion to the performers’ extreme attention to detail. Everything is finished. Everything satisfies — profoundly, the way a humble task, done correctly, should."
