“I hope that… these composers will hang on to and develop the germs of musical ideas generated here. I felt privileged to experience this stage of their blossoming.”

“Vines’ O’Connell’s Pig was almost descriptive: gentle rollicking, punctuated by percussive pig sounds in the double bass.”

“So watch for these composers… to come your way. They have a strong voice, and know how to achieve its expression.”
