Clive Paget from Musical America reviewed Sarah Kirkland Snider’s new studio album, Forward Into Light, on Nonesuch Records/New Amsterdam Records. Read more »

“First up, Sarah Kirkland Snider’s Forward Into Light, a distinctive and immersive album by one of America’s most individual talents. Scrupulously performed by Metropolis Ensemble and conductor Andrew Cyr, the recording pays microscopic attention to individual lines and details of orchestration. It’s an enthralling journey through four works that share themes of perseverance and evolution with subtle motivic ideas that find their way from one piece into another.”
