“Quiet Songs is full of jaw-dropping virtuosity.”
Quiet Songs
“On their debut CD, their interesting and varied backgrounds bring a unique perspective to the guitar and voice ensemble. New repertoire, fresh interpretations and a premiere recording of a piece by David Leisner make this a CD worth listening to.” — Urban Guitar
