Reviews
“…This music is individualistic, original in the best sense of the word, and masterfully constructed, and its composer draws his listener into his unique sound world… it [this album] receives my highest possible recommendation.”
David DeBoor Canfield – Fanfare – March/April 2024
“… All of these pieces have inspirations. Phenomenon is about unexplained mysteries like the Naga Fireballs, glowing orbs that rise from the Mekong River. The works contrast awe with excitement.”
Barry Killpatrick – American Record Guide – January/February 2024
