Album Description

It will take several repeated listening sessions to discover all the layers of this album, as it is rich in ideas and clever arrangements; a delightful musical experience for sure, for anybody who truly loves Jazz, improvisation and the sweet sound of guitar in the hands of a Master musician. Overall, this is a deeply rewarding listening experience, for all Jazz lovers and certainly for guitar connoisseurs, who will find here a whole world of music, that never stops to amaze. Once you are through with digesting the tunes, you are welcome to compare the intricate sound subtleties between the twelve instruments Zjaca utilizes here. Enjoy the trip! Adam Burach , jazz critic/journalist/biographer I've never heard a guitarist so atmospherically correct Pianist Thelonious Monk's fascinatingly angular, slightly rumbling approach is transferred to the six strings of the guitar. Ratko Ziaca's game is an experience. His openness, versatility and playful spontaneity as an improviser and also as a composer are a rare stroke of luck in the guitar scene. A musician that you should discover, because with this solo album Ratko Zjaca has finally moved into the top league, where he shines in the shadow of the really big names. Lothar Trampert Jazzthetik Jazz Magazine “Archtop Avenue is a compelling addition to the canon of solo guitar and a crowning achievement in Zjaca’s career to date. “ Bill Milkowski, american jazz critic/journalist/biographer
