RAM presents "Tokyo to New York"
"RAM gives us hauntingly idiomatic readings of this music, winning projections of great soundscaping art. I hope they see fit to release this concert on a commercial recording. It surely deserves to be heard--and I hope Random Access Music (RAM) can give us many further concerts like this for us to appreciate. Bravo!"
- Grego Applegate Edwards, Classical Modern Music
