Reviews

  • "Kerry Turner is a fortunate American composer to get this excellent hi-res surround disc with top-rate performances of his music. ...These four works are strongly melodious and highly individual, with some surprising and often haunting passages in them."

    – Audiophile Audition

  • "Karankawa is a knockout...like all of Turner's music, abounds in technical, virtuosity, whimsy, and enthusiasm."
