Nicholas Stevens of Cleveland Classical wrote, “Darkling, I Listen… resembled a single painted brushstroke on an otherwise blank canvas. Variable in thickness, color, and height, drawn against silence and always threatening to run out...” Louisville Courier-Journal music critic Andrew Adler wrote “[Dedications]…possessed surprising emotional resonance and was quite expertly wrought.”
