“When poetry becomes music… A concert that will live long in the memory.
Listening to the Salzburg Guitar Trio, three instruments merge into one body of sound. The collective breath, the harmonious and flowing movement while playing and the extremely fine tonal balance is fascinating. A finale to this year’s SICG (Stuttgart International Classic Guitar Festival) that could not have been more beautiful”

“I enjoyed so much the arrangements of the Salzburg Guitar Trio, of the Cortège and Menuet by Claude Debussy from the Petite Suite. Marvellous! Fantastic the way they sing together, the flexibility, this is a fantastic taste for this kind of music.”
“It has been such an amazing experience listening to the Salzburg Guitar Trio. Their sound and their phrasing are so remarkable. Besides all the qualities they show, they have this natural way of interacting and listening to each other that is very communicative. It makes their playing so interesting.”
