    The Washington Post provided the following review: “Soler showed himself to be unusually sensitive to color and the rhapsodic rise and fall of the phrases” adding: “he played dazzling solos with his left hand on the fingerboard, unleashed a battery of right-hand percussive effects on the body of the guitar, and engaged in some creative pitch-bending on blues-tinged melodies”.

    Called the new “Poet of the Guitar”, Maestro Soler's wide international activity as a performer has caused critics to hail him as one of the most notable artists of the guitar world.
