Press:

“…wunderbar fein austarierte Klangkunst, vielseitig, lebendig und im musikalischen Charakter absolut konsequent.”
(Süddeutsche Zeitung, 26.5.2009)

"... ein musikalische Feuerwerk, virtuos, abwechslungsreich und zutiefst emotional."
(Badische Zeitung, 30.01.2010)

"Seine Art Musik zu machen ist eine der authentischsten die ich je erlebt habe. Hört man seine Interpretationen, Improvisationen und Kompositionen erfährt man sehr viel über Hannes selbst. Mit seinem Instrument stellt er auf eindrucksvolle Weise einen Gefühlskosmos dar, dem man sich nicht entziehen kann."
(Ronny Waleska, 2011)
