"Musically, 'Enemy Slayer' is stunning. It moves from breathtakingly beautiful and lush passages to sections that are stringently dissonant, and finally ends peacefully and simply. Yet everything is cohesive and quite seamless. It is a hypnotic work that makes quite an impression on the listener."

~Review of Salt Lake City Choral Artists and Orchestra performance on
