Testimonials
"A mellow folk jazzy mix with full orchestration...Clear vocals and lyrics give an almost show tune theatrical quality to the sound. Great music for the easier listening or the relaxing times." -Enzyme (Detroit)
"Pop-jazz, with a slice of classical thrown in for good measure...eleven insightful and provoking poems set to music." -Kollage (Philadelphia)
"A startling collection of rock, jazz and folk that ranges from the subdued to the theatrical." -Cornell Sun (Ithaca)
"Restrained in feel, occasionally joyous in tone, and very nicely put together. Interesting and atypical." -Music Press (Binghamton)
"A sophisticated sound." -Ithaca Journal (Ithaca)
