New Review of Composers in the Loft
January 9, 2008

The CD Composers in the Loft was recently reviewed by online magazine Enjoy the Music.

"[Pierre Jalbert's] piece works well as "pure" music, constantly inventive and splendidly played by the Lincoln Trio. The second movement, labeled "Agnus Dei," is inspired by the Latin prayer ... this, too, is movingly performed."

The full review can be found here.
