“Rimkus’ broadly structured sonic tapestry ranges from uncluttered lyrical poignancy to denser textures that suggest a holy clamor.”
–Ken Herman
“The music ebbed and flowed, often feeling like a tableaux of which we are viewing only a short fragment, but always powerful and well-judged... Babylon ended with a faint murmur from the choir, returning to the opening line of the work, fading into the winter night, a spine-tingling moment in a piece of real substance and integrity.”
–Duncan Ferguson
