Reviews

[The piece] is set as an extended fantasy for solo singer, accompanying herself with triangle, woodblock and cymbal….the result is eloquently moving.”

—Heuwell Tircuit, San Francisco Chronicle

Nightingale is an avian tour de force….Woodblock, triangle, suspended cymbal and voice created a nostalgic, almost mystical mood which left me wishing that the work were longer.”

—Richard Capparela, KITE, Albany, New York
