''Gentile signora Sacchi, c'e' qualcosa d'importante che avrei voluto dirLe, di persona, subito dopo avere ascoltato il CD con le composizioni di Krumpholtz. Condenso le mie sensazioni da ascoltatore in una sola frase: l'effetto e' magico, e tale da trasportare chi ascolta verso altezze e idee difficilmente raggiungibili. Con ammirazione''
