If I could only give one example of what makes him a great musician, this would be it.I had a bit of a tough time to actually try describing what his music is since he has albums that range from Modern Classical (88) to post-rock/electronica (April albums) to an absolute mess of everything (Program Music I), maybe a description on Sputnikmusic might help:
"As a solo artist his idea is to create not only acoustic, but also electronic filmy soundscapes and atmospheres, by
melting together a variety of classic instruments, spoken word snippets, and crisp beats. With a proper amount
of ambient music, all of these form an exquisite sound experience."
