Peter has received esteemed praise throughout, including a personal letter from American Prize Director, David Katz. Regarding Peter’s work entitled A Music Ride, Katz wrote: “Your A Musing Ride generated considerable interest for its rhythmic inventiveness and what is even more valued, its infectious profile. If this piece is any example, your music in one’s ear sticks there, and that is the sign of a special gift – so I wanted to write to offer a personal bravo.”
