-FANFARE
"[In 'The Water is Wide, Daisy Bell'] Stiller is acutely sensitive to the emotional power built into [the contrasting themes], and to the cumulative cultural weight of old folk and pop melodies... This is not only a great piece but also a sure fire crowd-pleaser."
-FANFARE
"'The Water is Wide, Daisy Bell'... has to be heard to be believed; it is one of the most effective examples of musical postmodernism I've heard.
-American Record Guide
"'A Descent into the Maelstrom' is a brilliant, almost frighteningly realistic evocation of Edgar Allen Poe's word pictures of the abyss. Rating: ****
