"A very disciplined outfit, there was a baroque underpinning to Koch’s compositions wedded to an indie rock feel." - The New-York City Jazz Record
"Its music is sparkling, varying, forceful, pressing, rich in twists and turns in mood: from lyrical to unrestrainable, from wild to graceful, from virtuosic and crystalline to assertive and dramatic, from subdued to airy and demonstrative." - CAM JAZZ
"What’s immediately striking about the music that comes out of this trio is how formidably certain it is. An album packed with fascinating composition as well as terrific playing." - Brian Morton
"Abrupte Tempowechsel, harte Pausen, erstaunliche Akzentuierungen und ausgefeilte Dynamikbögen treffen auf schwelgerische Melodien, kleine repetitive Motive und starke Soli." - WORT LUXEMBURG
