The Mozart of Eurojazz.......2003-07-26
He has the technique, he has the ideas, and the creativity to beguile and easily sustain interest for a whole album. Sideman to master sax player/composer Jan Garbarek, and bass player composer Eberhard Weber, he is the perfect european jazz pianist.
The opposite of funky , Bruninghaus almost never plays a blue note. But he is such a divinely rare incarnation of euorsoul, you don't even miss the african vibe. Besides, it's there subliminally: ie the man swings!
He has found his own unique identity as a composer and improviser. There are cool tunes on this record, and glaringly ,almost in reaction to his longtime association with Eberhard Weber, there is no bass player on this recording. Sometimes I wish there was, but despite that sometimes pointed decision to eschew the bottom, this record stands the test of time. An interesting and emotionally poignant as well as intellectually stimulating recording to be savored.
One of the cornor stones of ECM's early recordings.......2001-03-29
Excellent side man steps out big first time on his own!.......1998-09-10
