Quotations from the liner-text of the reissue release by Klaus Schulz, 1980

Hans Koller (1921-2003)

After starting a second career as a painter, Hans Koller played "a music very much of his own, very modern in style...demonstrating a total identification of Hans Koller, the soloist, with Hans Koller, the composer."

Painter's Lament

"Koller plays with organ-like polyphone voicings, very similar to the way Koller painted during this period"
