"Sensitive arrangements, sparkling theme developments, enticing melodies, and magical orchestrations enchanted me throughout. The setting for this captivating music is Orcas Island. Trees, open waters, moonless nights, dark green ravines with glittering streams, and the white-cloaked Cascade Range provide deep spiritual inspirations." NAPRA Review

"Rich and harmonious, this album is recommended for all river lovers and seekers of river knowledge." Heartsong Review
