“Man, this is absolutely dynamite!
You have done a fantastic job of capturing all of the nuance of the piece - the variety of the percussion, the string divisi, the mutes - all of it is here. I can’t imagine how many hours of work went into this. I just want to congratulate you on your frighteningly accurate representation of the piece.”
– David Heuser
Associate Professor of Composition at University of Texas San Antonio,
