"His record can be called heavenly since the inexhaustible ingenuity for light songlike melodies and the clear diction seem to be fastened in the sky. Shining themes profess to singable simplicity just to open up to a raging passion for improvisation."
FAZ, 20-7-2015
"Sandro serves heavy stuff, intellectual demanding moderne always close or in the middle of free jazz."
Jazzpodium, 01-7-2015
"Growth offers a fine balance between composition and improvisations."
