"Wheeler has never written more clearly and luminously that here. His themes have the directness of gospel.... In a group where every man is a leader and has a strong personal vision, one might expect to hear schism and heresy, a straining for identity. What one gets instead is the six in thoughtful consort, the sounds of a group whose individual component are instantly recognizable... "
