WQXR-FM’s Q2 named Young one of the “10 Imagination-Grabbing, Trailblazing Artists of 2014” with contributor Brad Balliett stating “Nina’s music is constantly surprising, but at the same time, seems predestined. Every event seems so well-placed and inevitable that one is left with the feeling that the piece could have gone only the way she has it mapped out. Echoes of Stravinsky and something spectral give way to an intensely personal voice cut through with an ear for color and balance.”
