JANUARY 2008 - RATED THE IN THE TOP 10 OF 2007 BY NEW AGE REPORTER'S, RJ LANNAN! In 2008, RJ wrote, "Up and coming pianist, Denise Young plays her heart out on her new album Something You Dream Of. Her full CD is full of dream music with light ensemble that delivers enchanting contemporary pieces. She is one of the many new artists taken under wing by legendary guitarist and producer Will Ackerman and the perfect production of the album speaks for itself. The title tune is just about the best on the album. It declares that dreaming in the land of what if is still an acceptable mode of travel. Of all the contemporary albumbs I listened to this year, this is one of the best hands down."

In 2007 - New Age Reporter Reviewer, RJ Lannan wrote: "This is one of the best contemporary albums I have heard this year. Young’s liner notes say she has played at almost every venue with the exception of the Taj Mahal. Denise, Shah Jahan awaits your pleasure."

Rating: Excellent! *****

Will Ackerman wrote...

"Denise Young has the heart of a romantic, but her music is not lost in unnecessary ornamentation. Livia’s Song, for instance, is a deeply emotional composition which never relies on flourish or bombast to make it’s point or to reach us on a very powerful level. There is an element of innocence to Denise and her music which enables the listener to go to a musical and emotional place that is not commonly found these days: the world is poorer for it, but we are the richer for her sincere and heartfelt composition and graceful performance."
