"Very rarely might one heard a more fascinating guitar-recording"
CHRISMON, Germany

" …with a virtuosity beyond all criticism and an extremly sensual tone - it was a true musical treat for every aficionado of guitar music!"
GITARREKONKRET, Germany

Played with unbelievable virtuosity, which was combined with profound musicality, and a crystalline clarity, Ramirez´s "Odyssey" is a multivision for the ears with its brilliant quality. His way of playing is dramatic and powerful. Ramirez is a free explorer among guitarists, capable of climbing without any ropes, the impenetrable peaks of great difficulty with an ease and smoothness that appears seemingly effortless.
AKUSTIK GITARRE, Germany

I can´t describe this performance in words. You will simply have to take my word for it and get yourself a copy of this incredible recording before it disappears. Trust me, this is unique...." Matanya Ophee
