"In art, the past serves as a reminder to present generations concerning verities that go beyond time and place, in this case musical truths that are universal and eternal. Passion, energy, sincerity are virtues we hear in the music of masters, alongside the specifics of musicianship. Already as a young artist, Jure Pukl has absorbed these aspects as well as the language of the “avant garde” movement that began in earnest in the mid 1960’s in Europe and America. He has conceived the music with artists who understand the roots of this style. When a young musician looks back to the legacy, absorbs the salient points and places them in a contemporary context, you have a quality statement that will be rewarding to listener and musicians alike far into the future. Jure has done his homework." DAVID LIEBMAN 2008
