"The piece has an unrestrained, gradual build-up that makes a progression with each movement, each of which has some relation to the theme. The third movement contrasts a pensive, withdrawn state with one of exuberant jungle-like vitality." -The Chautauqua Daily
"This lively music exploits Brazilian dance rhythms and bird calls in a way that liberates the soul while reminding us of our limitations." -The Music Conoisseur

As part of the Houston Symphony's sesquicentennial celebration, and based on the folksong 'Deep in the Heart of Texas,' Ringing fragments the familiar melody in an Ives-like mosaic.
"A jubilant fanfare built on mutated fragments of a Texas folksong and inspired by the clanging of bells" -The Cape Codder
