"Adler is a sensitive man who uses music to go beyond the small human feelings that sometimes unwittingly determine our own lives. ...the composer, in his introspection, shows a deep need to communicate through art." (Sonograma)
"James Adler is one of America’s leading composer" (Composers Circle, August 2015)
"Suite Moderne for Strings was a pleasant surprise -- played by 'The President's Own' US Marine Chamber Orchestra. A simple, accessible approach to music is held up by continual invention and development of ideas melodic and rhythmic. The piece is quick, mobile, and engaging."
