TEMPO: A QUARTERLY REVIEW OF NEW MUSIC
“It was one of the most remarkable musical experiences of my year … demanding that we look and listen. A sincere and sensitive exploration of ethnicity, domesticity and violence.”
I Care If You Listen
“Utterly captivating … This was a daring and powerful theatrical evening which lasted less than an hour, but whose emotion will resonate for far longer.”
The Arts Desk
“Delicate, dedicated modernism … As ever with this orchestra the performance standards were impressively high, especially given the technical demands of the music.”
Musical Pointers
“The most enjoyable concert of our sampling of the City of London Festival.”
Seen and Heard International
“A clear statement of intent … Musical standards are high, and the enthusiasm of all the musicians onstage was abundantly clear. The orchestra has a clear musical identity, and its future looks very bright indeed.”
Australian Stage
“Kelly Lovelady is both a cultural ambassador for Australia and a campaigner for recognition for Australian artists abroad … Ruthless Jabiru is a brilliant company.”
“Energy was conjured from the air, swirled around menacingly and evocatively, and then, abruptly, dispersed.” Florence Anna Maunders reviews Ruthless Jabiru’s collaboration with Decibel New Music Ensemble and soloist Cat Hope, The Holy Presence of, for Planet Hugill. 
Ruthless Jabiru is joined by Australian-based friends Decibel New Music Ensemble in a programme for bass orchestra by Cat Hope, Tansy Davies, Kaija Saariaho, Lindsay Vickery, Pedro Alvarez and Julius Eastman at south London’s Brunel Museum on 02 December.
