Interview with Composer
Reviews
Phillip George had this to say in Twentieth Century Music
June 1999
"There's a little bit of the everyday and a little bit of the miraculous in Lawrence Moss's Capstone release, Miracles… Like some contemporary Schubertian Shepherd on the Rock, Moss has a gift for turning the commonplace into something quite fresh, reflecting the youth of the collaborators, child poets - from Australia, the United States, and New Zealand - ranging in age from four to 13.
Joseph McLellan in the Washington Post at the Composer's Forum in Washington, DCSept. 26, 1963
"The Moss piece, Apresludes for Flute and Percussion..., is a virtuoso exercise for flute and percussion … It is evocative, witty, powerful and delicate – particularly in its rich array of percussion textures."
Egil Gundersen of BrassBulletin writes:March, 1987 | Switzerland
"Das Annapolis Brass Quintet liefert uns seine Super-Affuehrung von Moss' fantastischem Flight, einer Komposition, die gut zu seiner Brillanz und Virtuositaet passt."
