„This suite is fun! There is a lot of color change: from melody leading instruments to the tutti solo passages. You can hear a touch of medieval to pop (Dock of the Bay) and even jazz. Some phrases and endings are surprising and imaginative. They break through expectations and provoke a little – a personal touch from the composer. Some passages are a challenge for the player. An impressive piece of work overall!“ Mathias Grabisch, Hamburg (studied by Richard Roblee, Professor of Jazz and Big Band at the University of Music in Würzburg)

„Diese Suite macht Laune! Es gibt sehr viel Farbenwechsel : Von Melodieführenden Instrumente bis zu den Tutti-Solopassagen. Man hört ein Hauch Mittelalter bis Pop (Dock of the Bay) und sogar Jazz. Manche Phrasen und Endings sind überraschend und fantasievoll. Sie durchbrechen Erwartungshaltungen und provozieren ein bißchen – eine persönliche Note des Komponisten. Für den Spieler stellen manche Passagen eine Herausforderung dar. Ein insgesamt beeindruckendes Werk!“ Mathias Grabisch, Hamburg

It is dedicated to San Francisco with his famous streets, views and neighborhoods.
