"Then the piece by Jan-Peter de Graaff called 'Overal is regen, regen' (Everywhere there is rain, rain). (...) A very mature and interesting composition, in which Jan-Peter transcibes into notes a poem by Jan Hanlo describing what rain means and what it does. Starting off with drizzle, I guess. Also fine orchestration work, with some nice accordion sequences." - H.P. Eeuwes, personal blog
