Reviews
A Closer Listen- Album review of Lullaby, released on Searching Records (2025):
"The gentle solo start and finish are like the announcement of a new day and the slow descent of the sun at twilight, with the glorious multicolor of nature in-between. As horn starts to duet with horn, one thinks first of the birds awakening and conversing with one another, then all of creation. This is comfort music, and it is incredibly soothing; but true to form, it is restful without being soporific."
SIGIC (Slovenian Music Information Center)- Review of Recitation, premiered by Lovorka Nemeš Dular (2024)
"This dense tissue reached us as a sound mass that changed in fragments, so that we did not have the feeling of a sound block, but the constant changes revived the mass, which otherwise remained massive and non-transparent throughout....Recitation is definitely an outstanding monumental work that captivated us with its intensity"

Academic Citations
A Year of Deep Listening (MIT Press)- anything and nothing published and referenced in foreword by Li(sa E.) Harris (2025)
"In 'anything and nothing,' Herscowitz offers a revolving cycle of reception, imagination, and creation, performed with others but in one's own time, until "we are no longer able to commit to the situation by choice or circumstance."
Among Objects: Percussion Ontology, Mediation, and Violence (UCSD)- we bound our skin and suspended the frame referenced in Michael Jones' PhD thesis (2024)
"The brush had become something else: not a sonic activator but some kind of referent to the body or of sonic activation itself. The musical moment became no longer about the presence of the sound of the drum and brush but about LeVeque’s usage of them, and provided a compelling aesthetic and theatrical experience."
