HOTEL DE PEKIN IN THE PRESS:
Jeths is a fantastic composer who knows how to transform drama into music. (Trouw)
Notes that excel in atmosphere and sensitiveness. (Telegraaf)
Jeths' music sounds: intense, grazing, twisting, shivering. (NRC-Handelsblad)
A splendid piece about Cixi: the last empress of China. About the gap between East and West, about power and impotence. (Algemeen Dagblad)
It is a sound-cosmos in which Jeths' basis-idiom, consisting of piercing secunds and augmented fourths, is interlarded with transparant, sometimes frantic "Chinoiseries". (Volkskrant)
The musical and vocal performance is excellent with Marie Angel in the impressive principal part as Empress. (NRC-Handelsblad)
