This review is from: Music of Barbara Harbach, Volume 2: Chamber Music I (Audio CD)

Here is a composer that obviously writes for the sheer enjoyment of it. The music is melodic, fresh, well put together, and well instrumented. Unless you must always have a masterpiece, it is suggested that you give it a try. There is nothing to dislike within its conservative framework, and much that bespeaks of sincerity and joy.
