"An extraordinary work, containing some of Mr. Adams’s richest, most daring music."
"While Mr. Adams is renowned as a wizard of orchestral colors, of pummeling fireworks and glistening stillnesses, he has never really gotten his due as a tunemaker … He can create earworm melodies the equal of Puccini’s.”
