-
…a set of variations on a strange and melancholy Schuber ländler, variations that draw further and further away from the theme before wonderfully returning to it in the pensive and beautiful ending. A couple of the lyrical variations are very pretty – the central one has an endless emlody loating over prismatically shifting chords – and the more outgoing ones are laid out over the keyboard inventively and attractively.
Richard Dyer, The Boston Globe

…a wonderful set of variations by Hoiby on a Schubert waltz. The music moves in a manner that at first flows naturally from the dark minor key of the waltz, and then flowers into some elegant and dazzling variations that are logical extensions of the Schubert original.
Paul Hume, WGMS Washington
