"With the kind of touch that makes you think what would happen if Bill Evans played guitar, this is a new fave on the rise". (Chris Spector, Midwest Record) "Muller is a fluid, lyrical guitarist, likely an emerging star in NYC for both his playing and composing. The tender, somewhat bluesy nature of his playing sets him apart" (Jim Hynes, Making a Scene Magazine) "Guillaume Muller offers evidence of his growing importance in the jazz scene with this impressive recording of both his fine skill in playing the guitar and also his ability as a composer of note" (Grady Harp, Amazon Reviews)
