„Magnificent cinema for the ears! Listening for the first time to the eight compositions … you will be flashed by this completely unconventional ride on a musical roller coaster: such fun with experimentation and strong contrasts. This variety of moods and sound colors up to the noise-like, these powerful jazz-orchestral sounds, detailed expeditions of smaller formations and expressive soloistic highlights!“
„System blasters! Is this (still) jazz or simply music that doesn’t care about categories? Are we listening to notes that have the potential to become system breakers? Anyone who gets involved with the good ninety minutes of Fuchsthone Orchestra will not only experience a journey through the world of improvised music that is as exciting as it is challenging, but also will have to deal with such questions.“
„The eight-part concept album alternates from a well-balanced big band set to an avantgarde stirring sound cascade and has lyrics by Greta Thunberg pop up. A multi-layered auditory movie…“
„Big, so beautiful. Structures & Beauty is the assertion that beauty exists…“
„…Zappa would have had a blast with it, though Carla Bley’s „Escalator over the Hill“ epic could also have been the inspiration. Philosophical thinking meets musical vision here…radically fresh and exciting!“
„Spectacular concert by the Fuchsthone Orchestra from Cologne rocked the Pantheon…certainly one of the best of the 13th Bonn Jazz Festival…“
