“Finley was superb in this first performance, and Ogren did an honorable job filling in on short notice. Schubert and Sibelius rounded out the program. But the night belonged to Lieberson.”–from article “Lieberson returns to Neruda’s well,” by Jeremy Eichler, boston.com
“Lieberson’s new song cycle given a moving premiere by Finley, Boston Symphony,” review by Keith Powers, The Classical Review
