Reviewers comments:
Truax's meditative music acquires an almost mystical character ... the quotations are motivated by the symbolic dimension of the compositions, and most of all these means are justified by the unusual beauty emanating from [his] music. In this beauty I see the greatest value of that recording [Inside], especially that it is not the superficial beauty, but beauty within which one can find deep premises. (Daria Kwiatkowska, iKlasyka, Magazyn muzycznyi, Poland)
