| "It
is unabashedly one of Europe´s most
sophisticated jazz bands"....."Dørge
and band don't simply reverently imitate the
Ellington jungle-sound, but ironically and
humorously carry that sound to its logical
musical conclusion"....."His (Dørge´s)
imaginative play with African styles and instrumentation,
is unparalleled by any other musicians not
of African descent" |
|
| "One
of the most original, exuberant and, dare
I say it, fun jazz concerts seen for some

.....en af de mest spændende og udfordrende
jazzmusikere, lille Danmark nogen sinde har

dance rhythms, sax soloist who understand
there are times when music must be allowed
to breath, exotic accents, references to the
legacies of two of America´s greatest
jazz composers Ellington and Mingus plus a
touch of dadaism." |
|
| "De
spillede farver på en grå dag" |

pulserende metropol værdig, sender Pierre
Dørge lytteren på en musikalsk
safari i sit forunderlige univers" |

| "Det
er stor original musik, som skolebørnene
skulle have med i madpakken som tvungent kosttilskud
om vinteren." |
|
| "Skandinavisk
jazz lär aldrig bli originalere, mindre
skandinavisk eller njutbarare än så
här. Mognad musik för hela världen" |
|
| "...den
mand kan blive ved med at finde nye veje.
En dansk jazzmusiker, vi kan være buldrende
stolte af i lille Danmark" |
|
| "Orkestret
har aldrig været bedre" |
