Press Reviews EUROPEAN PROGRESSIVE ROCK REVIEW said "This is a totally mesmerising experience, the guitar playing is faultless, breath taking and quite emotionally charged.One can only be inspired by the music and guitar skills involved on this album. This is an highly accomplished piece of work made all the better by the razor sharp recording. Excellent, yes a Major Album of 2000". MUSICAL DISCOVERIES said "Each piece is masterfully played. Technical production and recording quality of the compact disc is superb.The highlights of the album were the Steve Howe-based arrangements and compositions which were played flawlessly and with a flowing technique. The stark setting of pure acoustic guitar works quite well. Its excellent guitar work should be studied further—a nice listen!" RIFFAGE said "Ed Schaum's classical guitar performance is fluid and precise. The debut solo album features several well-known favorites by Vivaldi, Segovia and Mozart, as well as many unique pieces by Steve Howe, one of Ed's more modern influences. All of the pieces featured are fantastic, combining true talent with subtle zest." AUDIOGALAXY said "Aspiring guitar slingers should give this new age/classical crossover a listen for a lesson in dynamics... the recording quality is good and the guitar playing is jaw dropping." LISTEN.COM said "Highly skilled guitarist who seems, at the moment, content to interpret the work of others -- most notably, Steve Howe and Andres Segovia. Able, textured playing expresses Schaum's voice without compromising the integrity of the originals."
