Review from New Jersey Stage: "The Sourland Symphony" is a fantastic instrumental collection, well written and performed and with its diverse styles is a must add to any music collection. Popik took his time analyzing the mountain and each composition reflects not only his patience but also the landscape's various seasons and times.

The Symphony is currently #7 on the NACC Radio charts ( North American College and Community Radio)
