Acoustic Blend Media Reviews

"This CD is a treat for the listener and serves as a welcome introduction to a Duo whose musical insight makes the world richer for us all." -- Marilynn Mair, Mandolin Quarterly

"Elegant string virtuosity that ranges from romantic to whimsical. It has become an essential part of my CD collection." -- Michael Nowak, WGN Radio, Chicago

"Acoustic Blend represents…an exploration into some very sophisticated tunes. The listener will readily come to recognize an intriguing blend of jazz/folk/swing/classical musical strategies being deployed in virtually every selection. I recommend this album for anyone who enjoys the beauty and cleanness of a nylon-string guitar." -- Bernard Richter, www.minor7th.com
