His music has been called "entrancing," and that it "promises to speak for the sorrows of this generation" (Philadelphia Inquirer). It has gained further recognition for its "expressive directness" (New York Times) and "yearning poetic quality" (Baltimore Sun). He has received awards from Meet the Composer, the American Music Center, American Composers Forum, and the Theodore Presser and Independence foundations. He holds residencies with the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Atlantic Music Festival, and Vermont Symphony, where he is a Meet the Composer "Music Alive!" composer-in-residence.
