for Three Voices, Trumpet, and Chamber ensemble
 
“heartbreaking in its intensity" - International Trumpet Guild
 
“.Gabriel” is simply a beautifully lyric opera that deals with contemporary issues; it is emotionally engaging and aurally satisfying.  [The] music is intimate and inviting, and the poignant thematic material suggests a certain relevance to our everyday society that simply cannot be ignored. - American Record Guide
 
“[.Gabriel’s] emphasis on the computer as a poor substitute for genuine social interaction makes it firmly an opera for our time . . . Fascinating. - Fanfare Magazine
