” … a striking piano quartet by Gernot Wolfgang … His compelling solutions in Metamorphosis sounded neither forced nor artificial. At its core, the piece is a wild minor swing with Balkan Gypsy gestures and rhetoric.”
John Henken, The Los Angeles Times
” … a strikingly muscular and momentum-filled piece of music … for many the highlight of a wonderful musical evening … surprising, sometimes jarring – but never incoherent and never unmusical.”
Nis Kildegaard, Vineyard Gazette (Martha’s Vineyard)
” … a really compelling composition … ”
Walter Simmons, Fanfare Magazine
“Metamorphosis fuer Streichtrio und Klavier gefaellt durch ein expressives, ideenreiche Wandlungen durchlaufendes Violin-Thema … “
Andreas Felber, JazzZeit (AUSTRIA)
