"All the precious things in life - emotions and sensations like love and pain, joy and grief, childlike wonder, fantasies and dreams, faith and hope, an ear for the sounds of silence, the curiosity that leads us to discover creation, nature and the countryside - all of these values are threatened with virtual extinction in today's world.
I have therefore set out to recall these values through my music-making, in the context of the world in which I live."
"Ever since Burgenland has been my home, I have sought to translate my surroundings, my Pannonia into music.
Over the years I have composed countless brief pieces of music in which I have sought to encapsulate the diversity of the landscape and of the people of this region and the wealth of influences, the traditions and customs and the environment in an expressive form appropriate to our day and age."
