"A good follow up to Bay of Kings (in fact, this one and Bay of Kings makes a very good 2 CD set). Very mellow, original classical style music from a great guitarist. Hackett has such a feel for all styles of guitar and is successful in this effort in communicating his love for music and his instrument. Simple production ... just the guitar and a few complementary instruments ... only a master musician could pull it off. Hackett does.I really like Hackett's progressive/electric side, but I am appreciating more his versatility of late. If you only like the harder/progressive side of Hackett or if you have no love for classical guitar, don't get this one.If you like very good original classical style guitar, try this one for sure."

Best Guitar since invention

"Hackett has captured so many pictures, ideas, landscapes, emotions, and more in just the simple strumming of a classical acoustic guitar. Combined with his brother on flute in Calvacanti he expresses such deep sentiments that only composers such as himself can realize. A true master of the art, this CD brings him to another level altogether."

Beautifully recorded

"This is a CD for those who love classical guitar and are hungry to hear new compositions that give a different "sound" to the instrument. Steve's playing is very relax and the result is a sensitive recording."
