Pamelia, "Instantaneously appealing!"

Pamelia, "The piece is in a lively Romantic style that bears traces of Western folk elements and a strong Copland influence."

Pamelia, "The orchestration subtly underpins the conversational vocal line to pain a variety of moods and themes.  Sparse textures prevail in the score...these Britten-like transparencies allow the voice to dominate the texture."

Earth is New Begun, "The highlight of the evening was Eric Funk's remarkable 'Earth is New Begun'...after a somewhat disconcerting preceding fanfare, Funk achieves some genuine lyricism in the body of the work."

Rhayader, "Funk's music major triumph!  The music immediately captures attention and the imagination."

Rhayader, "It was a beautiful, strange, haunting work."

Dance Concertare, "The highlight of the program was Eric Funk's prize winning Dance Concertare, a pleasingly delicate trough of sound, heavily leaning in the direction of Penderecki."

Concerto, Op53, "Funk's concerto is a bold work, full of dramatic thrusts, difficult leaps and soaring lines for the horn.  The work developed its expressionistic complexities in sometimes strident, sometimes muted fashion."
