“DuWors and Niekawa are a beautifully balanced duo, with exceptional intonation and a tangible empathy.”
“[T]he album is a demonstration disc for Jolly’s talent which is on great display here.”
“Purely and compellingly orchestral. Very good sound.”
“[B]oth technical and expressive, from jazz to plainchant to ecstasy.”
Alberga’s ingenious mingling of dodecaphonic and tonal material never feels stale.”
“Instantly accessible to the casual listener, while, at the same time, well-constructed, with clear intent as to matters of form, harmony, and more than enough technical complexity to satisfy the more analytical academic.”
“an album here full of engaging melodies both from traditional and more familiar tangos to recent compositions in the form.”
“Cheeseman’s album contrasts sonorities that are distinctive and compelling in order to create elaborate sound environments.”
