"If you are hoping to reacquaint yourself with the softer side of classical music while immersing yourself in some equally enthralling contemporary compositions, then Pastoral Reflections fills the bill perfectly. Old world elegance segues into a modern day travelogue of music guaranteed to take you away from it all. Under the strong, bold hand of conductor Lawrence Golan, Beethoven’s finest and Jill Haley’s best compositions come alive. Listen to them often. The spirit deserves it. Excellent recording."

- R J Lannan, ArtisanMusicReviews.com

"The orchestra began Chopin’s work under the firmness of Golan, a highly experienced baton, who impressed a constant unity on the ensemble throughout the performance. The evening continued with Tchaikovsky’s “Serenade”, which the ensemble performed with dynamic variances that were always wisely crafted...guided by the sensitive directorial intuition of Lawrence Golan. At the end of the evening, the sold-out audience bestowed repeated and meritorious approval on the very capable musicians."
