The debut on the MA label of German trumpet virtuoso, Markus Stockhausen, the oldest son of one of the most important composers of the 20th cent., Karlheinz Stockhausen.

The music, with roots in both the 20th century avant garde and improvisation, features Markus' amazing and beautiful trumpet playing.
