...it is all about music as an immeasurable,
fascinating, delicate and multifaced form...it is about advancing on trails on which others have already given up...the most wonderful radicalization of an acoustic guitarist one can think of...Axel Schultheiss is a
wizard who balances on a high wire with incredible competence...it’s a special joy, a really special experience.
|
|
|
There is hardly a musician who is as keen on
experimenting as Axel Schultheiss...”the uplift” is the best way to expand one’s own musical horizon...sympathetic intensity, huge dynamics and incredible passion...it is fascinating to listen to it over and over
again.

...driving rhythms...spirited
improvisations...mastery of melody and harmonic movements...a masterful guitarist and composer who can call to mind moods ranging from fear and sadness to uninhibited joy. His use of dissonance and subtle tonal
shifts will reward careful listeners. I enthusiastically recommend this CD.

|
|
Energized and full of dynamics...bordercrossing guitar music,
which feels connected with the cosmos...melodic lines are of top notch quality...like a journey of the unconscious mind... with deep emotional layers...
|
|
|
...often rather fingerfast...but also smooth and
fluently melodic...powerful through his strength in focus...everything in balance and vibrantly vivid...another wonderful release.
