Review:
"David Liptak's 'Concerto for Viola and Four Percussion' turned out to be
contemporary music at its level best: It was original and adventurous, but
it wore these attributes lightly and unselfconsciously. The piece used
xylophone, gong, chimes, snare drum and an array of other instrumentsthat
seemingly left no percussion sound unexplored. It was, in effect, a
sparkiling work that included some of the most ardent viola writing
imaginable." -John Pitcher, Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, 4/19/06
