Press QuotesDeutsch "In addio...sognando, the solo trumpet (William Forman) floated over a musical texture filled with electronic sounds. This solo seemed to pervade the sound tracks, called ‘audio tracks’, with various playing techniques and the use of different kinds of mutes, thus achieving an effect of entangled sounds in a fascinating way, which was both new and familiar at the same time." (Ute Büchter-Römer, nmz, 03 Jun 2009)
