"As a Peter Maffay Fan from Chicago,USA,I found the variety of sounds and "flavors" in this CD exciting and "delicious" From the beautiful duet "Savior" with Noa, "Wapio" (with Lohua Kanza.) Maffay sings in Kanza's African language with a deep smooth voice demonstrating his own vocal range which compliments the Kanza's heartfelt tenor. A new treatment for a favorite "Nessaja" in duet with Jose Carreras? Yes, it works. The Rich unique voice of Keb'Mo carries "Am I wrong" with Maffay hanging right in there. Maffay's native German is evident with the contrasting pronunciation on this track, yet his own fine voice and the pure enjoyment of music is a joy to hear. Each of the artists featured in Begegnungen is a talented musician. After a year of listening to this CD I find it still fresh and and fun."
