Upon Silence

這是一部傑出的作品，以葉芝的《長腿蒼蠅》為背景，本傑明在其中找到了一個新的富有表現力的聲音世界--在豐富的不協和和絃、撥弦和顫音效果中加入嘎吱嘎吱的色彩。本傑明以猶豫不決的 Parlando 風格運用聲音，果斷地捕捉到了詩中幽閉恐懼的本質'"

原文簡介:
This is a remarkable work, a setting of Yeats’ "Long-Legged Fly", where Benjamin has found a newly expressive sound world - rasping colours in rich dissonant chords, pizzicato and tremolo effects. And in his use of the voice in hesitant parlando style, the claustrophobic nature of the poem is decisively captured.' The Independent (Annette Morreau), 30 October 1996
