Reviews of The Knights
“as inventive as could be… The players were unquestionably having a good time… and it was hard not to get caught up in its spirit.”

“if we are to talk about the future of classical music in America, sooner or later, the Knights will come up”

“It’s… unusual to see [classical music] discussed in the kind of animated terms usually reserved for less stately styles of music.”

“refinements achieved communally during the rehearsal result in greater buoyancy and songfulness”
