"[Chamber Music Palisades'] fifth season opened with the world premiere of a striking piano quartet by Gernot Wolfgang ... His compelling solutions sounded neither forced nor artificial. At its core, the piece is a wild minor swing spiked with Balkan Gypsy gestures and rhetoric." John Henken, The Los Angeles Times

"This [Trilogy for Oboe, Bassoon and Piano] is a truly riveting piece of music! Each of the movements is unique, and could be played individually, but they work with incredible impact as a trio which I would compare favorably to some of the most famous doublereed trios in the repertoire (Poulenc, Francaix, etc.)." Ronald Klimko, The Double Reed

" ... the musical highlight of the evening was the performance of the stunning Trilogy for Oboe, Bassoon and Piano by Gernot Wolfgang, ... Rich with rhythmic elements taken from the jazz tradition, the trilogy comprises two up-tempo movements - the opening Go Get It and the concluding Looking East - and one slow waltz, Another Life. Mr. Wolfgang's fast movements had a wonderful forward momentum and sprightly sense of drama, never losing the audience but always engaging, always carrying the listener along. The slow movement was mellow and lyrical, its rich chords reminiscent of Gershwin ... " Martha's Vineyard Gazette

"... Gernot Wolfgang's "Continuum III" - Variations for Bassoon and Orchestra - a delicate, modernistic piece which incorporates stylistic elements of jazz and latin music ..." Die Presse (Vienna/Austria)

"... the most exciting experience was saved for the final piece. Axis 3 ... is driven by additional percussive musical effects, like stroking the trombone with a thimble and [electronically] amplified special tonguing different sources of sound - ... a phenomenal effect ..." Tiroler Tageszeitung (Innsbruck/Austria) |
