«The essential reviewer’s dilemma is this: to put into words what is adequately expressed only in music. There are times when one is tempted to wring one’s hands at the attempt to encapsulate what is heard into what one writes. Sometimes one is tempted to simply state, “You must hear this, and nothing else will suffice.” The choral part of the Requiem is unrivaled; there is not a misplaced breath, vowel, or consonant; there is no subtlety of volume that is not exploited». - James Hildreth, The American Organist, July 2007
