A Surprise in every track
John C. Mucci | Wilton, CT USA | 02/18/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

"While I find that Charles Cadman is today totally underrated in our musical estimation, these chamber gems are emblematic of his ability, and should be heard much more often than they are. They possess a feeling of breaking-free from the European shackles, but they do not embrace the modernists or the iconoclasts. His love of Native American music, which he made his own specialty, is not evident here in these pieces; rather, they are exciting in their own way, with a dramatic intensity we wouldn't ordinarily associate with Cadman. ("The Land of Sky Blue Water" was his big number, as well as "At Dawning" - and they are much too tame for his very intense soul.) His operas need to be heard again, as their faults are no worse than those of Mascagni's or Scott Joplin's."
