"Ms. Cohen on the clarinet was a revelation. She could evoke infectious joy [and] conjure a deep, soulful melancholy. Even as she was playing the most technically difficult of all the reed instruments, she took my breath away. [With] the tenor saxophone it was immediate ly apparent that she was a terrific musician, fluid, full-throated, with a knack for creating beautifully crafted, even eloquent solos."
