ReviewsFerko, as interpreter, brings alive the accoutrements of his score, like the droplets of sound that account for the origins of life in movement one, or the bold statements of plainsong (often that of Hildegard) that overarch many monumental and sure-to-prevail addition to the repertoire.- The American Organist; July 1998
