"The natural world enfolds and nurtures her [Emma Pennell] for a time, composer/music director Spencer Kryzanowski’s infinitely sensitive piano score a perennial, virtually organic partner throughout Pennell’s excruciatingly moving life story." - Ian Ritchie (Opera Going Toronto)
"This piece [Red Daughters] was composed by Music Director Spencer Kryzanowski in 48 hours after the original composer resigned suddenly. Kryzanowski more than rose to the task, setting Pennell’s text in a sensitive, tender, and engaging way. No sting was lost in the subject matter and the music sat gorgeously in Pennell’s stellar soprano. The piece was moving, emotional, and a piece everyone who identifies as a Canadian should see or hear at least once." - Greg Finney (Schmopera)
"Spencer Kryzanowski’s score, composed in less than a week, provided a richly romantic support to Emma’s powerful singing." - John Gilks (Opera Ramblings)
