"I believe that Boris Gaquere is one of the new generation's most interesting and 'authentically musical' guitarists/composers. To my eye, he belongs to a very small circle of artists who are as sensitive as they are creative and who have understood the importance of silence and the unspoken in music." - Roland DYENS
"Dear Boris, you have made a beautiful recording of these wonderful pieces of music. I very much enjoyed your performance of the Suite by Loeillet. You play with the freshness and clarity it needs. Congratulations for your recording." - David RUSSELL (about Boris Gaquere's Carpe Diem CD)
"...There is in Boris a marvellous control of the guitar, a beautiful rythmic sprightliness for this demanding repertoire..." - Philip Catherine (about Boris Gaquere's Tempo Feliz CD)
"...a name to watch for in the future." - Classical Guitar, UK
"Gaquere, in this first CD [Xeque-Mate ~ VGo Recordings], shows an original compositional voice, a command of the instrument and a strong ear for new composers. He is a new voice I hope to hear more of soon.” - Guitarramagazine.com, USA
My name is Boris Gaquere. I am a guitarist and composer from Brussels, Belgium. I studied at the Royal Conservatories in Brussels and Mons with Sérgio & Odair Assad. I made several recordings: 1) Obrigado - Duo Gaquere-SungHo (Chamber CDCH207) 2) Xeque-Mate - solo and duo with Odair Assad on a few tracks(VGo VG1004) 3) Carpe Diem - solo album of baroque music (VGo VG1010) 4) Tempo Feliz - with Renato Martins on percussions (Mogno F010)
I also recorded in Japan with Shin-ichi Fukuda and Yasuji Ohagi, in Belgium with Luc Pilartz in his project Violon Populaire, and in France with Sébastien Vachez' on his 'Brésils' album.
I wrote musics for the Assad Brothers, Shin-ichi Fukuda, Tomonori Arai, Yasuji Ohagi, Duo Guitarinet, etc...

PRESS REACTIONS
"Nebulous post-industrial soundscapes constantly tweaked and realigned to create one of the most original electronic records of the year to date. 4.5/5" - THE MILK FACTORY
"Literally one in a million; tweaking and meshing uncommon sounds to create one of the most original electronic pieces I have heard all year. Abstract art for the ears most certainly." - AW MUSIC
"A post-glitch triumph that goes by quickly but not without making one’s head spin." - CYCLIC DEFROST
"Murky Circuits sounds like a highly caffeinated robot took over a decrepit Radio Shack and had its way with anything it could grab." - CHUBBY JONES
Salut Boris, comment va? J'ai une nouvelle formule duo
avec un excellent tabliste et quelques nouvelles chansons
toujours plus "modales"... Au plaisir de te revoir, Reynald.
