'' described the performance "Christine Southworth’s “Concerning the Doodle” accompanies a film (about the adventures and fantasies of a dog) by the Clever Girls Collaborative. It is straightforward, texturally and harmonically: the piece begins as an assertive blast of hard rock, driven by David Cossin’s drumming, the guitarist Mark Stewart’s power chords and Robert Black’s solid bass. But Ms. Southworth soon moves the players through a parade of quirkier, bright-hued pop styles in an appealingly unpredictable structure driven by the film." Also in 2009, she was commissioned by Performing Arts Center for a work for Balinese Gamelan Selonding with electronics, which was premiered at the International Gamelan Festival Amsterdam at the Lichthal Tropenmuseum by Gamelan Semara Ratih on September 10, 2010, and she was commissioned by the

A subsequent performance at MIT's Festival of Arts, Science and Technology was hailed by the Boston Globe's Jeremy Eichler as "coolly exhilarating", "courted both common ground and the energy of culture clash by pitting the Kronos Quartet in traditional and avant-gardish sonorities against the interlaced rhythmic complexities of the gamelan."
