Rain Worthington is a contemporary voice that demands to be heard. The present first collection [Dream Vapors] establishes her as a unique orchestral exponent, an inspired artist saying something definite and compelling today. …it is the impact of the composing in every case that stands out as full of dark, burnished color. She is a master of her own orchestral palette.
– Gapplegate Classical-Modern Music Reviews
Her music takes “…ideas of American musical style to a new place – like a walk in a familiar, yet very different park… And isn’t afraid to come up with its own startling conclusions.”
– Kyle Gann, Chamber Music magazine
