“I was completely captivated by the artist's guitar skills.” Kultur Musik, Turkey
“The pieces have something crucial; they don’t sound derivative. They are certainly idiomatic guitar pieces but they all have a distinctly personal sound. This is an ideal album for chilling on a Sunday afternoon in their den, needing some pensive time but will work for anyone needing to relax. The playing is very, very good, clean and expressive.” Andrew Schulman, Internationally Acclaimed Guitarist, Author and Medical Musician Initiative Executive Director, New York City
