Reviews

"The title piece of the CD is an unnervingly vivid representation of the unsettling impressions of a lifetime insomniac in the small hours of the night. The composer has a wonderful sense of instrumental color, and an accessible harmonic language."
  -- Records International Reviews

"Of particular interest are Night, Again, with its darkness and flashes of light, and the Cello Concerto, with its alternating moods of introspection and playfulness. The Baylor University Wind Ensemble, under the direction of Michael Haithcock, plays this music with style and understanding. Vern Sielert, flügelhorn, and Robert La Rue, cello, give strong performance in their concertos."   -- American Record Guide

"... Hagen's style seems to be rooted in jazz and the American neo-Romantic: highly crafted, instrumentally colorful, basically tonal, and very listenable."  -- Fanfare Magazine
