REVIEWS OF “THE SYMPHONIC WORKS OF DANIEL ASIA: GATEWAYS”

M. BARGREEN, THE SEATTLE TIMES

Schub’s performance of the challenging but listener-friendly Piano Concerto is a tour de force. Sedares and the orchestra handle the complex and varied orchestration with an excellence that underscores the New Zealand Symphony’s fine reputation….this recording should make a major step toward getting Asia the recognition he deserves.

W. SIMMONS, FANFARE

Daniel Asia is one of the most prominent American composers of his generation…Certainly the centerpiece of the disc is Asia’s 37-minute Piano Concerto…This is the deepest, most personal music I have heard from Asia.
