"This is largely lyric music, both lovely and poetic, ... The open and soaring melodies remind this reviewer of Copland and Hovhaness." - John Falskow, ITG Journal, March 2013.
Summer Suite was awarded the 2013 Cheryl A Spector Prize by the Third Millennium Ensemble and Honorable Mention in the 2010 Pathways Contest by Imagine Music Publishing.
"Beautiful and pensive Summer Suite occupies a unique expressive and emotional space in the trumpet repertoire. The great modern works are inaccessible to anyone with regular skills on the instrument.
