... Portadown Times, Northern Ireland "The music of Lee Johnson defines modern classical music by crossing several centuries and integrating styles. His music has charm and beauty, it warms the heart and invigorates the mind. Both "Sandfloor Cathedral" and "The Colours Of A Soul" exemplify his carefully crafted, intellectual, yet highly spiritual musical journeys. He uses a variety of techniques that vary from those typically associated with European classical music, to others that originated in non-western countries. His elegant, insightful and celestial combination of modern elements and old forms make him the quintessential new classicist." ... Dr. Lyn Schenbeck, Agnes Scott College "As a composer, Lee Johnson has a highly original and evocative style. His music has great charm and attraction for lovers of modern classical music." ... Alternative Music Press "Lee Johnson's enthralling debut challenges rather than placates." ... Darren Bergstein, I/E Magazine "Lee Johnson is birthing new music out of a new heart and is taking us back to the land of beauty." ... online reviewer www.amazon.com "The music of Lee Johnson has become the ascending benchmark for what the music of the twenty-first century should be. Lee Johnson´s music possesses a perfection in its construction that causes it to soar in beauty, passion and elegance. Johnson has taken his compositional style and fused within it many modern elements that seem as though they may have always existed together, and perhaps that is what makes him a new classisist. If the measure of great art is the truth and beauty that it imparts in us, then I am convinced that the music of Lee Johnson can be counted among the important works of our time." ... Donald Tipton "A full-length orchestral masterpiece" ... Creations Magazine "New Times Album of the Month" ... New Times "Engaging music" ... Cowboys and Indians Magazine |
