"The [film] is stunning, at once calling back to previous experiments in cinema history and leaving you with a newfound sense of aesthetic and emotional possibility." -Joshua Bogatin, Screen Slate

"It’s a film to see and hear, not to watch or listen to." -Jordan Raup, The Film Stage

"An Evening Song (for three voices) is as visually robust as it is dramatically intimate." -Natalia Keogan, Filmmaker Magazine

"The melodrama that bubbles beneath the story’s surface finds release in the performances of its remarkable cast." -Musuem of the Moving Image

"A heady cinematic concoction. Swon’s [film is a] tone poem of a melodrama, a rhythmic incantation overlaying woozy, coruscating visuals that look as if they could have been conjured in a crystal ball." -Keva York, Reverse Shot

"Like a Henry James ghost story transposed to the rural landscapes of a Willa Cather novel, An Evening Song (for three voices) is a Gothic romance in the guise of a 1930s pulp mystery." -Regal Riviera, Film Fest Knox
