“This Book of Sounds rediscovers the listener as a partner of sound and silence, who in the quest for his world, wishes for once to be totally at one with sound. 

‍‍It rediscovers the piano as an instrument of timbre and tuneful sound with all its possibilities of dynamics, colour and resonance. 

‍The Book of Sounds rediscovers playing as the possibility of experiencing oneself in sound, of becoming at one in time and space with all the sounds around one. 

‍It rediscovers a world of consonant experience which could only now be written because of a totally changed consciousness of sounds on earth.”

—Hans Otte
