Reviews:"Skuta clearly revels in Beethoven's fierceness…" Double Four Star rating, BBC Music Magazine, October 2008. "Clarity of thought and execution are paramount in these bracing readings…" Classic FM Magazine, October 2008. "The Les Adieux Sonata's first movement better absorbs Skuta's Rhetorical asides and flexible basic pulse. He sings out in the Andante espressivo directly and eloquently…" Gramophone, December 2008.
Comment:Darmstadt after the school of music coined by Luigo Nono. Acoustic after music that uses instruments. Breakcore after music that contains speed, complexity and impact. Plus natural sounds. Miki Skuta and Marek Piacek's improvised new music.
Comment:Miki Skuta continues his exploration of improvised music with Austrian trombone wizard, Bertl Mutter. No edits, no overdubbing, this is "one-off" music recorded for all time!
