"I have performed some of Lowe's original works with orchestra and found them very rewarding. It's always good to hear that the orchestral musicians enjoy a particular piece of music, and this was the case with Lowe's work. I commissioned Lowe for two different arrangements for mezzo, full orchestra, and chorus for our holiday pops concert as well as an arrangement for a Broadway Pops evening with full orchestra. What impressed me was not only the "bespoke" service of being able to set the instrumentation and the key for the vocalist, or the wonderful finished product, but also the fact that he managed to deliver the score and parts in 48 hours! Incredible! I will be using Lowe again and can highly recommend him to conductors, administrators, or anyone looking to have a chart made to their exact specifications." - Peter Shannon, Conductor and Artistic Director of the Jackson Symphony Orchestra and former Conductor of the Savannah Philharmonic Orchestra.
“Singing Lowe's arrangement of “Oh Holy Night” was transcendent. The arrangement honored the classic hymn but was beautifully written into a new experience.” - Erica Gabriel, soprano, 2018 American Traditions Vocal Competition Gold Medalist and frequent vocalist in Bernstein's Mass with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
