If Kuhn’s vocal pieces – the motet Der Mensch lebt und bestehet and the Missa brevis, with its ever-present, occasionally extended tonality – look backwards to Bach and Palestrina, the instrumental works here place him unmistakably in the twentieth century, particularly the spare, constructivist Piano Pieces. Not an easily resolved relationship on this useful but unfocused survey.'
