"[Allen Anderson's] String Quartet is a well-crafted, three-movement, post-Bartók affair... Anderson is quite good at suggesting that there's an underlying presence - an emotional and not merely structural meaning - attached to every rhythmic gesture, melodic twist, and harmonic modulation; he avoids common touches and never writes busywork in order to fill up space. ...there's no doubt Anderson has found a voice which is well served by these talented performers." Art Lange, Fanfare
