]]> “A Night to Remember” — a review of the September 20, 2011 New York Composers Circle concert at Bargemusic — was published in the online magazine SoundWordSight. The review was written by the music critic David Abrams.

He writes:

PUBLIQuartet gave Richard Russell’s “Adagio for String Quartet” a soft caressing tenderness and great charm. PUBLIQuartet’s interpretation of this piece showed why it is one of the most popular contemporary works for string quartet.

Although my piece only has a brief mention, the review of the concert overall is very positive, and I am very glad to have been a part of it. A group photo was taken after the concert, but I must have been in the restroom!
