“With his new quartet PATA, HORNS & DRUMS, Norbert Stein manages to combine the trends in contemporary music with the classic beauty of musical traditions to create a colorful and rich picture of modernity … In the new Pata compositions, space is created for the art of improvisation, in which the virtuosity of the musicians can unfold … The four musicians draw upon many years of experience in European music, a variety of concert tours throughout all of the continents of the world, and intensive encounters with foreign musical cultures.”
