PRESS

On Quasar saxophone quartet / c.d. “Quasar ”:

“ It’s fascinating to hear the Quebecian saxophonists in Frank Crijns’s piece “Tonk” , whose rhythmical drive and knotty chords appeal to the enthusiasm of the Quasar players.”
(R. de Beer , de Volkskrant, 2000)

” The title refers to “honky-tonk”, because of the rhythmical approach the composer gave to this work. But also the many-voiced melodies and the specific pace are ingredients of “Tonk” that resemble to the works of Conlon Nancarrow.”
(R.van der Heyden, Brabants Dagblad, 2000)
