(5 out of 5 stars)

"Saariaho is a genius, 'nuff said.
Cendres is an extension of her "a la fumee" and is blissful Saariaho, sound melting, smashing itself, and then reforming.
Grammaire des reves I have heard before on her record, "From the Grammar of Dreams", but this recording really hooked me on that one for some reason. It reminds me of a pair of unfettered maenads and the nightmarish landscape they are wandering through.
Solar can also be found recorded elsewhere, and is amazing as always
New Gates is a new piece, derived from the final movement of her ballet "Maa".
Another great Saariaho album. I have almost everything available. But what about her other unrecorded works? When will we see this appear?????"
