Michael Mueller This album's music ebbs and flows like a river, and in doing so, perfectly fuses the spirit of jazz with the compositional craft of classical.

A pleasure to hear the seldom solo tuba and bass trumpet given so much room to shine, as it reveals them to possessed of real melodic resonance that belies their position as little more than harmonic bedrocks.

Herskedal is a gifted composer, but this is career highlight, even by his already lofty standards. Favorite track: The Roc.

john greenwood I am a fan, the last two Herskedal albums were exceptional. Really glad to get this on vinyl. I have to say as much as I expected this to be quite good, it still surprises me just how good it is. Much respect for the depth and the breadth of the Music you continue to create. My favorite track has changed several times already. Favorite track: Eternal Sunshine Creates A Desert.
