Second album of the band, released 2003
Co-produced by Peter Peter Buerli, SRF2

"Every Note A Thing Of Beauty

Good saxophone players, really good ones, are hard to come by. When you hear one, you know it, and you know it in about ten seconds. Reto Suhner is such a saxophone player. I first became aware of him about three years ago when his quartet's CD "Montag" came out (reviewed in the Sept/Oct 2004 Saxophone Journal). His sound, then and now is completely unique; dark, rich, almost one dimensional with out being liveless or colorless. Truly the possessor of a sound and style all his own, this native of Switzerland ist just 33 years old. On this CD Suhner plays soprano, alto and tenor saxophones and is aided by Lester Menezes (piano), Fabian Gisler (bass) and Dominik Burkhalter (drums). Suhner's playing of all the three saxophones is of the highest caliber, but for me his real voice is the alto, with soprano a close second. Listen to "Schwäne im Weltall", the alto quietly wails and cries at once, he even growls to make his point. "The Fourth Uneasy Piece", rife with attitude and personality is a showcase for his soprano voice. Suhner's playing is superb on many leveles, not the least of wich is his capacity to make every note a thing of beauty."
