ECHO Jazz 2010
Concerto: Five Points
"…eine durchgehende Kette von künstlerischen Juwelen."
December 2008/January 2009
Jazzthing: "Ein Album, das Hoffnung keimen läßt. Ja doch, es gibt ihn noch, den Jazz, auch wenn er mittlerweile ein anderes Outfit trägt. […] Wer schon lange auf das Unerwartete wartet, der landet mit dem Refuge Trio einen Volltreffer."
February/March 2009
Rondo: "So widerborstig die Platte zunächst wirkt, so groß ist ihr Suchtpotenzial."
N° 1/2009
All about Jazz.com: "The trio dispels a traditional mode of delivery, which works irrefutably well here. It's a persuasive collaboration that can often radiate into unorthodox phrasings, abetted by Bleckmann's shrewd live electronic treatments that compliment either the clement or thrusting passages. And the trio frequently reinvents a particular melody line via an improvisational element. Sure enough, they triumphantly merge a cerebral game-plan with high entertainment, creating a top pick for 2009."
April 2009
thejazzbreakfast.com: "Subtle and intriguing, innovative on many levels, and working in the spaces between jazz and all sorts of other kinds of music."
February 2009
Chicago Reader: "On this recording [Bleckmann's] vocals function like a third instrument, but he never sounds like he's merely trying to mimic one. It's tremendously rare for a singer to realize the potential of the voice so thoroughly."
