Downbeat rated ****1/2
"...brilliantly realized...reaches back to Italian composers of the Baroque and Renaissance, recontextualizing centuries-old themes and melodies via modern improvisation, more an act of resurrection than archaeology...stellar quartet
-- Shaun Brady for Downbeat, 2011
Ejazz News
"..Blaser's superfine band hits the mark, where yearning sentimentality often underscores the improvisational parts...Blaser is a multifarious artist who intersperses edgy overtones with lushly organized passages...one of the more persuasive jazz releases of 2011
-- Glenn Astarita for eJazzNews
Gazeta rated ****
"...one of the most amazing albums I have ever heard!"
-- Piotc Iwicki for Gazeta Wyborcza
Les dernieres nouvelles du jazz
