"Sophisticated and obvious, timeless and innovative, it could be the duality that is expressed in the music resulting from this absolutely splendid European collaboration"
Citizenjazz (France)
www.citizenjazz.com/Tabakis-Trescher.html

"The instrumentation is an exciting and fresh treat for the ear. The ability to create textures is omnipresent in the exquisite song “Interface,” a rich melody playing in the dark void of space subsumed by the fascinating timbre of the bass clarinet." Debbie Burk - jazz author (UK)

"It's almost easy to forget that there are only two instruments on songs like "Interface. As the title of this stunning effort might suggest, its inner dualism is definitely something to behold. On the one hand, the music is incredibly sophisticated and intelligently crafted".
JazzCorner (US)

"very open-minded attitude, incorporating various ethnic sounds with a jazz and fusion background"

"The music of the duo is characterized by the distinctive language and expressiveness of each one of them. It‘s an exciting even magical mix of European jazz with classical music spiced up by traditional Greek flavors"

"A very well-matched duality, as you will hear. It’s gorgeous"
Jazzviews (UK)

"The chemistry of these two amazing musicians and their instruments share is astonishing. Melodies coming from pure musical notes combined with a number of musical ingredients such as Greek folk elements, contemporary classical music and the biggest one European jazz style".
Adriana Rubio (Buenos Aires)

A moody lyricism is the engine that drives this recording, and that foundation allows plenty of room for passages of deep contemplation and sudden, thrilling bursts of flight".
Ryan Porter - live at New Morning (Paris)
