"My musical aesthetic involves interpreting abstract concepts from quantum physics and expressing through my compositions the notion of humanity's insignificance in relation to my Creator."
- Mingdu Li 2023
"...the music has a compelling ever-present pulse, conveying the sense of inexorability..."
"...three female composers whose work I have felt moved to regard as confirmation of absolute mastery of orchestration: Anna Thorvaldsdóttir, Mingdu Li and now Claire McCue... allow me to believe that orchestral music has an assured future, in Scotland and internationally."
- Donal Hurley, Edinburgh Music Review
" ...exuding a sense of an uncontrollable beast of pure energy... a confident work."
- David Smythe, Bachtrack Music Review
