. . . .John McLachlan isn’t loath to stand up and be counted with the best of the rest... The kinds of words McLachlan uses of his music – “athematic”, “quasi-algorithmic” and “statistical” – are reflected in ruthlessly logical sinews and fastidiously clear textures. A first hearing disclosed some distinctive features, but what really counted was the raw psychological effect. . . .
