"A Due (2008), for the Basso Moderno Duo; Allan Von Schenkel, double bass, and Kristen Williams, piano. Written in Taos, this piece has a lovely bucholic sound, lively and intelligent, emotionally expressive and sonically impressionistic, in which sound worlds of double bass and piano overlap and contrast. This is a meditative, lyrical, impassioned partnership. These younger performers are most impressive musicians".
