Jane Dargaville - The Canberra Times"This is music that is youthful in spirit and essentially lyrical, confidently scored and expressively balancing power with reflection." Music Critic W.L. Hoffmann"Curtis' music shares Rachel Portman's sweeping lyrical quality but also has the urgency and freshness typical of Australian scores." Philip O'Brien"(Curtis displays)...a sure creative hand in both the development of the music as well as in the assurance of her handling of orchestral colours." Music Critic W.L. Hoffmann"The symphony is an arresting musical evocation of the images and colours of the Australian landscape." Music Critic W.L.
