Critic reviews

  • “…there is little doubt that [Block] was an extremely fluent composer with a strong personal identity whose cause is brilliantly served here by outstandingly committed playing from the ARC Ensemble and a superbly vivid recording.”

    BBC Music Magazine, 5 stars, December 2024

  • “This is music in the first rank of beauty and color from the hand of a master. The performances are uniformly excellent.”

    American Record Guide, American record guide critics’ choice 2024, January 2025
