Louder Than The Music     [5]

Jono Davies, reviewing the album for Louder Than The Music, bestowed a rating of four and a half stars, observed "moments of pure brilliance here, and there are moments that are also hauntingly beautiful - and if that wasn't enough, there are also moments that just capture your soul when you start to listen."[5] Davies came to the conclusion that "This album sounds different to most albums out now, but for all the right reasons, and it is such a stunning album. This new album is classical, instrumental and modern orchestral music at its best."[5]
