reception
"When the sounds do somersaults, the instruments whirring or grimly purring, when the mischief breaks out of supposedly familiar melodies, then you can feel the human harmony that inspires every improvisation."
“Dancing to recorder music? You'd better believe it. Wildes Holz had the audience […] head-banging, pogoing and generally gawping with amazement at the sheer fluency and showmanship of recorder-player Tobias Reisige […] Their own music is beautifully orchestrated with strong themes, brilliantly interlocking acoustic guitar and double bass parts, lightning-quick changes of tempo and mood, heaps of energy and masterful improvisation. "
“Dancing to the recorder? Believe it better. Wild wood brought the audience to headbanging , pogo - generally to the enthusiastic gaze at the sheer dexterity and display of recorder player Tobias Reisige. Your own music is beautifully orchestrated with strong themes , brilliantly combines the concert guitar with double bass phases, changes tempos and mood at lightning speed and is bursting with energy and masterful improvisation . "
“If the unique combination of recorder, guitars and double bass alone is attractive, the most important secret of the trio is that it is a band of friends. You can feel a lot of joy in the music. But there are so many peculiarities, temperaments and playing styles that one could also speak of a timbre orchestra. "
