In Griffes' The Pleasure Dome of Kubla Khan, Lemco writes,"Tetzloff imbues the eight minutes of exotic solipsism with an erotic, impulsive sense of nuance, exactly the quality he provides to the mystical refinement of Alexander Scriabin."
"The Scriabin experience concludes with the 1914 Vers la Flamme, meant to begin a new sonata, but instead remaining a compressed poem of graduated, rising, echo-color that revels in high, repeated notes. Theatrically dramatic as it is manifestly erotic, the music invites Tetzloff to demonstrate his mastery of color effects to obvious advantage."
