Dream Libretto is an album by pianist Marilyn Crispell, violinist Tanya Kalmanovitch, and electronic musician Richard Teitelbaum.
In a review for DownBeat, Tamar Sella stated that, on the album, the "musicians mold a temporary sonic realm of the unconscious, and traverse through it with dedication and curiosity."
The narratives within the pieces are miraculous nonlinear threads of the unconscious, unfolding gently to offer inexplicable turns or to fade into darkness."
Concerning "The River," Sella commented: "Kalmanovitch and Crispell respond to the richness of the mournful dreamspace unfolded before them with a playful calmness, exploring whispers, silences and stillness.
"[2] Writing for All About Jazz, Glenn Astarita referred to the album as "an endearing musical statement, where [Crispell] and her cohorts execute a requiem framed on improvisations and succinct melodies based on the pianist's close friends and family who have passed on.
