General comments:
Sieber is a cellist who has played with several ecto favourites, including Susan Court and Sohre. She uses both electric and acoustic cellos to bring a range to her own instrumental compositions. (Neile)
Comments about live performance:
I was completely bowled over by her when I saw her performing with Ferron in 1995. (neal)

Comments:
A little unshapely (not exactly sure what I mean by that) but still has some nice moments. The moodiness of the cello is one of the strengths of this disc, but there is a variety of sound here. (Neile)
Thanks to JoAnn Whetsell for work on this entry.
