Self PortraitOliveros - the whole work is improvisatory ...Thus, the musicianship of the Quintet becomes even more impressive. Rubin - highly accessible in its infectious tune and rhythms...This is a wonderful group of musicians with wonderful tone, great ensemble... and interests in a wide range of styles.. Robert Carl, Fanfare, March/April 1997

Discovering the New WorldWith the Manhattan School of Music Chamber Sinfonia, Glen Cortese, conductor.
Each member of the Quintet of the Americas is a virtuoso in his or her own right....The sound on this MMC disc is extraordinary, and a good thing when dealing with the kaleidoscopic orchestrations of a McKinley or a Sierra. Elliott S. Hurwitt, Schwann OPUS Summer 1997

Never Sing Before BreakfastNote: CDs SOLD OUT, available in cassette tape only
Quintet of the Americas certainly knows how to pick new music; or is it simply that their gorgeous playing makes it all sound do good? I think it is both, and this has become one of my favorite discs of new music for winds. James H. North, Fanfare, Jan/Feb 1992
