Peter Bolte´s seventh CD under his own name "Beyond the fragile geometry of space" (Merfadéz Music CD 07) was recorded in 2007. The trio of Bolte, Paul Imm, double bass, and Alan Jones, drums, is joined on two cuts by Henning Berg on the trombone and Paul Heller on the tenor saxophone.
On four short pieces, Peter Bolte plays flute on up to more than 30 layered tracks.
The CD was nominated for the Quarterly Critics´ Choice of the German Critics´Award. Jazz thing observed " `Beyond the fragile geometry of space´ makes it more than clear: here is something valuable that eludes the record labels."
"Time and space seem to be suspended for these 56 minutes. One does not find CDs like this very often anymore," can be seen in Jazzpodium.
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) writes: "The beautiful madness of jazz erupts with rare vitality and diversity from alto saxophonist Peter Bolte´s new CD.
His tone has a quasi-existential urgency; it is the suited medium for a well of ideas that busts out at all seams via dazzling virtuosity."

Here is a trio track:
