"Music of the highest order"  Jay Collins SIGNAL TO NOISE 2004

 

"Luminescent crescents generated by Giardullo's horn. (He's) possessed of a beautifully spare tone .... always suffused with plenty of unearthly microtonal detail. "  David Keenan, WIRE (London) 2003                                                     

"Spirituality and poetry. The interplay is perfect. 4 ****  Stars."

" Perpetual motion...a maze of intricacies...The level of playing is off the charts!"
