“A composer many believe to be the best of his generation.”
-THE NEW YORK TIMES
“Dennis Cleveland is the most exciting and innovative new opera since Einstein on the Beach…”
-Kyle Gann, THE VILLAGE VOICE
“And Rouse’s music, the overlapping rhythmic
patterns in strings and winds and electronic keyboards are pure sonic encouragement, lifting us all to a higher plane.”
-Mark Swed, LOS ANGELES TIMES on Funding
“But for now, we have Rouse’s works as living proof that complexity need not keep listeners at a distance, and that pop music can sustain serious interest with the right person at the helm.”
-Ken Smith, GRAMOPHONE, on Cameraworld
“A revelation, a rarity.”
-Robyn Archer, MELBOURNE FESTIVAL NEWS
“Opera deals with higher truths. And the particular path that Rouse is exploring has much promise for the advancement of a new and, in its own right, distinctly American art form.”
-Mark Swed, LOS ANGELES TIMES
