WHAT THE PRESS WRITES ABOUT MIKUSKOVICS BAUM´S ALBUMS:

"Luminous and fascinating on a lot of different levels, “Timeless” is a brilliant convergence of improvisation, unusual, thoughtful instrumentation, sensitivity, mindfulness, and magical soundscapes..." (Dyan Garris (NewAgeCD)

"Lux Natus Est has to be the most original and unique albums I have had land on my desk over the many years of writing with reference to Christmas music. Mikuskovics Baum’s respectful attention to detail and charming musical arrangements will no doubt bring a lot of seasonal cheer to the listener during this holiday season and so it should." (Steve Sheppard, One World Music)

"...the music of Mikuskovics Baum is a vivid musical journey in traditional European music." (Folk World Magazine)

" ...the focus is on the beauty of silence and on the magic of careful instrumentation ... This creates the pleasant feeling of a tender dream journey to leave the everyday life behind." (Sonic Seducer)

"...from Transylvanian ministrel songs over Irish traditionals to Slovak shepherd songs the duo creates a sensitive sound of various cultures." (Zillo Medieval)

"...harp, horn pipe, jaw harp, overtone singing ... and floating often two-part vocal work: Whether they are travelling with "King of the fairies & The Butterfly" to Ireland or they strike up a very solemn version of Matthias Claudius´ "Evening Song" Bernhard Mikuskovics and Georg Baum know how to make us forget the hectic life..." (Miroque)
