Metronome Magazine - Boston MA -"Fingerstyle guitarist Del Vezeau
is a master at his craft. Performing original classical pieces, Vezeau
creates wonderfully stunning aurascapes with just his skillful solo
guitar work. Equally adept at delivering soft, flowing passages as he
is at lightning quick arpeggios, Vezeau maintains steady handiwork
throughout this exuberant collection of songs. A true work of art.
Bravo!" .
