"’Obscure Temptations' was Jiří Kylián's contribution to the opening programme of NDT 3 in November 1991. Kylián created a solo, full of irregular movements on the gamelan-like music of John Cage. The strongly expressive beginning is determined by a panel on the stage in which the silhouette of the female dancer is visible." –Financieel Dagblad, November 1991.
