​Jan Jennings for Harp Column Magazine
"This is a brilliant collection of original compositions for the lever harp... a wonderful addition to anyone's lever harp music collection, leading away from the cliched music and I highly recommend it."  Monika Stadler for Harp Magazine

​Review by Denise Grupp-Vernon for Folk Harp Journal
"I have enjoyed these pieces for many reasons, but mostly for their very catchy tunes with lots of groove and their so very well placed extended techniques! Each piece is musically satisfying and fun to play."
