"I can't believe how exciting the recording is!
I've had time for one listen and I am blown away!
In the action music, the orchestra sounds like it is on fire!
I totally see why you singled out the brass for praise, but the
entire ensemble plays beautifully.
It might very well be the best thing that you, Nic and the orchestra
have yet done." (Frank K. DeWald)

"This recording of The Alamo is everything Dimitri Tiomkin would
have wished for in a faithful reconstruction of his timeless
score." (Olivia Tiomkin Douglas)
