Thomas Kiefner of Film Music: A Neglected Art, has a great review for the Charles Denler Portraits of Colorado recording:
“When I opened this one I immediately became intrigued because it was a new composer, a work about Colorado paintings, and performed by the Colorado Symphony. … I can assure you that the sound you’ll hear is melodic, well orchestrated and arranged to make your listening experience easy on the ears. … ‘A Walk in the White Forest’ somewhat reminds me of something that Copland might have done with the Denler style. … These variations are built around the main theme that you heard in the opening movement. It is calm and peaceful, making the end of your day relaxing. … Well recorded and performed, this would be a nice addition to your collection.” —Thomas Kiefner
