"Quartet spans music landscape"

David Williams- The Charleston Gazette

October 4, 2004

     "...The program of music by living American female composers made for a truly memorable experience in concert-going."

Demeter Prelude

    "Brouwer's Demeter Prelude (1997), an eight-minute tone poem about the Greek goddess' search for her daughter Persephone in the Hadean underworld, included a rich variety of ideas braced by vibrant sonorities."

Crosswinds

     "Brouwer, who was in the audience, also seemed to tap into a bit of impressionism in her magical ending to Dusk.  Her Old Time Fiddles: High, Low, Lower touched on Bartokian slides and rhythmic energy without shedding an ounce of originality."
