The album "Ligia Loretta - Learning to Fly" consists of 13 of the songs that I have written during the last 14 years.

"Each song is a real pearl, polished with a lot of refinement, sensibility and grace. Splendid, original melodies that reflect musical experience and exceptional talent. (...) The very beautiful lyrics bring the listener into a world of a sublime nature, embraced by so much feeling, so much love. Actually, everything is under the sign of the love towards everything that falls under the incidence of human cognition. (...)"

(Ion Matasaru, composer, musicologist, songwriter)

"Es sind Lieder, die sich ins Gedächtnis einprägen, von denen man sich tragen lassen kann wie ein Vogel vom Wind."

(Christian Teissl, Dichter, Literaturhistoriker)

Here are fragments of some of the songs:
