"Jazz is truly a Universal language, and I am glad to know that it is alive, well and in good  hands in Argentina. A nice collection of listenable tunes, played with an  easy and sensitive interpretation. Good sounds from good players"

Ron McClure, composer and bass player (Charles Lloyd, Dave Liebman, Lee Konitz)

"Guillermo writes beautiful melodies, and has a real chemistry with his band. They are good improvisers as well. I really enjoyed his CD."

John Stowell, great guitarist

"Your CD is really beautiful! I really enjoyed listening to it and dig the melodicism in your concept!!."

Donny McCaslin, sax player (Steps Ahead, Gary Burton, Tom Harrell)

"Without losing his deep roots and feeling of his South American homeland Guillermo Bazzola speaks the language of jazz with a fluency of one whose very means of expression is the guitar. As a composer he is a poet and as a guitarist he is a dancer. His playing is a joy to hear and his CD is a must have for those who want to know what's going on in the world of guitar."

Sid Jacobs, guitarist, instructor at the GIT, Los Angeles

"An unussually subtle guitarist...a sax player that is among the best in Argentina...a solid rhythm section...one more proof that jazz in Buenos Aires is possible."

Diego Fischerman, "Página/12" newspaper, Buenos Aires, Argentina
