Reviews:
“Rolling Hills & Jagged Ridges is the finest work on the disc [Gernot Wolfgang, Short Stories]. Its inspiration is the imaginary landscape of the title, which begins and ends enveloped in mist, with an impressive view of the rugged landscape in between. The music for violin is particularly inventive, with a returning ‘Hills’ theme and imaginative use of silence and plucking, and even a Bach-like cadenza. As the mist decends towards the end of the piece, there is time for one last, quick flourish. ”
