Apr 8, 2016Stetson is stepping it up a notch; inexplicably adding drama to the music that is already steeped in powerful emotional sensations.
-
Apr 8, 2016Sorrow is a radical reinterpretation, but it should be accessible to many. Stetson delivers an acute, wider, deeper hearing of Górecki's symphony as a powerful, beautiful, musically diverse meditation on unspeakable loss.

UncutApr 27, 2016A remarkable accomplishment. [Jun 2016, p.79]
-
The WireApr 21, 2016Sorrow is a faithful revision. [Apr 2016, p.58]
-
Apr 8, 2016This is something at once new and familiar, and it demands your attention immediately.
-
Apr 15, 2016This is instrumental music that embraces its undying capacity for uplift, that shakes off distinctions between bathos and pathos, between mawkish and grave, as it blasts upward.
-
Apr 13, 2016SORROW feels like a half-hour pummeling followed by a 24-minute healing session. And maybe that’s the point. Separation--and the grief resulting from it--is never an evenly balanced journey.
-
Apr 8, 2016Whilst SORROW is clearly marked by genius, the scope and weight of this project is so substantial that the individual talent of a virtuoso like Stetson is somewhat buried, stepping back from the centre stage and once again filling the role of collaborator.
-
Apr 8, 2016It’s an album that you’ll get immersed in, one with surprises more subtle than some of Stetson’s other work, but not necessarily less rewarding.
