"Its orchestration and level of melodic invention proved catching. A snappy
intrada movement is followed by a lovely elegy section in which solo trumpet,
clarinet, flute and oboe stir the ear. All this leads to a stirring closer of a
march. The requirements for soloists and ensemble are considerable. . . . A
noteworthy composition."
—Peter Jacobi, Bloomington (IN) Herald-Times
"The highlight of the concert."
—The Wooster Voice
