| "Through the cutlines reads classical, this isn't a collection of minatures from the classica, at least not yet; the compositions are, save an encore by Bach, all by Miss. Shumas, they could become classics after a passage of time, but for now they're original, wonderfully fresh, and well worth custom. The question begged after listening to the alum is whether Linda Shumas is a tasteful composer who plays beautifully, or a fine pianist with a gift for delicate, all evocative of the titles such as The Moors, Dance of the Anemones, and the cover, to mention a few. Listening to them, one is mindful of Chopin and Debussy being performed by Alec Templeton. A kudo for Patricia Swan on Lullaby for Jessye Norman. This is an album that deserves to do well." --Bill Watt, RPM magazine-- |
