Reviews:


A work of bold imagination, strongly individual personality, and undeniable emotional impact—in short, a major contribution to the American musical stage.” - Musical America


Glorious, exuberant fantasy...VALIS is a work of phenomenal power, a beautifully crafted exploration drawing on a fantastic range of sound.” - Los Angeles Herald Examiner


VALIS will knock you out if you’ve ever enjoyed any form of space-rock, be it Hawkwind, Germanic synth material, much heavy metal or even early Bowie.” - Hi Fi News (London)


VALIS is a beautiful and ravishing work!” - Jules Verne Magazine (Stockholm)


VALIS is an aural wonderland, and one produced by the latest computer-music technologies. It demonstrates that Machover has a real finger on the pulse of American pop and serious culture. Here is a work with fresh, original and exciting ideas about everything from rap to minimalism to serialism.” - 7 Days (New York)
