Notes & Reviews:

There are any number of ways to describe artists who work at the margins: underrated, overlooked, a musician's musician. But if many slip into the cracks, there are a few who actively relish those cracks, a few who seek to split the rocks apart with inexorable innovation and provocatively big musical ears. Eleanor Hovda (1940 - 2009) was such an artist, and innova is honored to present The Eleanor Hovda Collection, the definitive 4CD archive of her mind-blowing works. [Eleanor has an] "exquisitely refined musical personality, overflowing imagination and constantly inventive craft." - Robert Carl of Fanfare Magazine

Fanfare Magazine, July / August 2012
A final word of thanks and recognition to Philip Blackburn and the entire Innova organization, as this is yet another of the incredibly important rescue operations they're performing for composers who might otherwise slip through the cracks (I think of their great Henry Brant series, for example). Every music library in America, for example, should have this collection. Bravo; it gives us all a little faith in lean times. And this is unquestionably on the next Want List.
