musica intima, into light |
"… Morlock's Exaudi, which begins in Gregorian-chantlike gravity, builds to a frightening crescendo, and subsides into radiant peace. This new work is on musica intima's just-released CD called Into Light, and is a strong argument for getting it."
- Lloyd Dykk, Georgia Straight
"…the evening's best was saved for last. Jocelyn Morlock's Exaudi, with Underhill again conducting, proved a real gem. Morlock's work goes well beyond the safe techniques of much contemporary choral music, creating sonorities that are complex and, above all, original… Exaudi brought both the program and the season to a splendid close."
- David Gordon Duke, Vancouver Sun

"Jocelyn Morlock's Darwin's Walken Fish Quartet is all musical fun and games, with a splashy percussive ending that contemplates what life would be like if fish were four-legged creatures."

Rachel Iwaasa, Cosmophony |
"Jocelyn Morlock's atmospheric vision of Mars is elliptical phantasm provided by the planet's twin moons Phobos and Deimos."

Continuum 1 |
"Jocelyn Morlock looked to the world of birdsong for her evocative Bird in the Tangled Sky which exploited the bending of a single pitch against a static one to plaintive effect and featured...lovely pliant playing from violinist Mark Fewer."
- Elisssa Poole, Globe and Mail

Delicate Fires |
"New pieces by Jocelyn Morlock, Rodney Sharman and Jennifer Butler vary in idiom from Satiean quirk to Feldman-esque pensiveness. It’s all inviting music, without any of that tired stoic overreach that haunts so many contemporary compositions.
Most people don’t know what BC music is like, how when it’s properly performed it whiffs of cedar, ocean mist and rainwater, with long slow arabesques wavering the way healthy boughs do in an evening breeze...
“Delicate Fires” illuminates an important and refreshing aspect of our national sound that begs multiple hearings."
- John Keillor, WholeNote

Euphonia |
This album reveals confident and richly textured solo writing, inviting the listener to explore different sensibilities of time and texture in each musical narrative.
"The works of the five composers featured on Euphonia have vastly enriched the solo accordion repertoire..."

So You Want To Write A Fugue? |
"This has to be the most exciting disc of new Canadian music in years. It overflows with invention, and most compositions find that elusive balance between being easy on the ears and being thought-provoking...Andrew Burashko and David Swann perform the program's most impressive works, by Jocelyn Morlock and Gary Kulesha, respectively."
- John Terauds, Toronto Star

Trio Verlaine: Fin de Siècle… the music of Debussy and Ravel |
"Morlock is a composer skilled not only in writing original music but in having an ear for adapting the music of others, even the rarefied sound of French impressionism... The combination of Morlock's deftly idiomatic arrangements and the playing by these uncanny musicians made for a wonderful experience. My favorites: the Debussy Ballade and the Ravel Tombeau de Couperin, which was rapture."
- Lloyd Dykk, Vancouver Sun
