Critical Acclaim

Picture
 Zaimont is a serious artist, formidably endowed, and capable of a broad audience appeal.
                                                --   FANFARE
Her music immediately immerses the auditor in Zaimont’s own soundscape …. This is music sown with seeds of greatness.                      --  FANFARE  2012
These pieces are terrifically good in many ways. Zaimont’s harmonic language is intriguing and well-handled. The overall sound world here is relatively dissonant, yet clearly contains tonal underpinnings.  Surprisingly, she is able to effectively juggle triads, more astringent verticals, and extended techniques within this style.   A wide range of moods is also tellingly delineated here; there is much variety of atmosphere, and Zaimont clearly possesses a keen sense of characterization, pacing and drama. 
                            Best of all each piece inhabits its own emotional world.
                                                -- NEW MUSIC CONNOISSEUR 
Life on this earth is simply too short: If I had more time here, I’d travel to her residence and insist that she play for me every note she’d ever composed….  [T]hese two masterworks are exemplary in all parameters….  Indeed, you will not want to miss this profoundly moving pair of works.               
                                                --  Canfield,  FANFARE 2016
A composer of the first rank - a mid-career master.
                     -- NEW MUSIC CONNOISSEUR
The music is handsomely turned with flashes of brilliance. There are no arid passages, nor is there any padding at all.  Zaimont has enriched the literature.    -- SYRACUSE POST-STANDARD
A colorful and commanding work.  This is contemporary music you really want to hear again.                                                                        --  THE NEW RECORDS       
A composer worthy of her broad recognition is Judith Lang Zaimont, whose high-voltage, glittering [work] proved completely satisfying.
                                                 -- THE WASHINGTON POST
Irresistible... The music enchants.     
                -- GRAMOPHONE - October/November 2007
Elegant, gorgeous, and revelatory.   
               -- WORLD Magazine - July 2007
Exquisitely crafted, vividly characterized and wholly appealing.  
                     -- NEW YORK TIMES
Beautiful and original.                         -- PIANO QUARTERLY
Expressive and idiomatic works.   
                               -- CLAVIER
Interesting and distinctive.  Enjoyable, intelligent,  consistently inventive and accomplished music. 
                   -- MUSIC WEB INTERNATIONAL   2007
A piece of considerable poetic and incantatory power -- compelling rhythmic energy, provocative instrumental textures and haunting melismatic melody.  
                                               -- OVATION
Zaimont lays out in clear display her formal concepts, contained masterfully by a centrifugal moving tonality
that never lacks direction.      
                             -- GREENVILLE (SC) NEWS
Uncommonly  attractive  music.
                    --  FANFARE
Beautiful music.  Enthusiastically recommended to every lover of chamber music with strings and piano.                                                                  --FANFARE
Zaimont's vocal solo works are a unique contribution to contemporary song literature.  They are of high quality and lasting significance.                
                                                     -- NATS JOURNAL
Its elegant piano accompaniments, the greatly varied but always coherent melodic writing made this piece intensely interesting and at times quite beautiful.      
       -- NEW YORK TIMES
Judith Lang Zaimont is one of the foremost composers active on the American scene.
                                                -- CHORAL JOURNAL
 An excellent work, its disparate elements fused with remarkable skill.  Indeed, listening to Zaimont’s music, one often thinks that if a common musical language could exist in the late 20th century, it might sound like this.    
                                                           -- BALTIMORE SUN
