    "What a great CD! Not only is it technically brilliant in the rudiments of just having things happen together, in tune, in time and balanced; this recording displays some great individual artistry in phrasing, rubati and expressive interpretation. Steven's music is current, fun, challenging, engaging and, above all, heart-felt."

    "The Sotto Voce recording is really remarkable. At first I was struck by the virtuosic ease with which the ensemble plays, and as I listened further I became more and more aware of how expressively everyone on the recording performs. Any brass player, any wind musician, will learn a lot from this stunning recording, and really enjoy it as well."
