Reviews
"...the highly feted American composer John Corigliano brings Dylan’s poetic lyrics into the realm of contemporary classical music, setting seven texts to his unique original music with compelling results."
"Here was only one work of many in which Ms. Ruberg-Gordon achieved the finest balance, acting as both the core sound and the very glue of Land’s End Ensemble – absolutely ideal playing all night."
“...a wonderful Land’s End Ensemble concert, Land’s End certainly did justice to the work, particularly at the furious climactic points of the piece…”
“...the music is rigorous, lively and imaginative; his program notes mention influences of Estonian folk music…”
