"It is particularly good to get the chance to hear again Buller's Proença... for it is by any standards one of the great achievements of recent British music. It is an intensely dramatic, incessantly colourful evocation of the world of the 12th-century troubadours, with settings for mezzo-soprano of Provençal lyrics that offer a potted history of the Languedoc culture, and introduces a solo electric guitar to add a pungent edge to two of the climactic sections."

Andrew Clements, The Guardian, 2003
