Citace z tisku:
„Czech guitarist Petr Zelenka brings an edgy warmth to jazz that isn't heard too often these days“. (All About Jazz)
„Zelenka..s CD is another promising flash on the contemporary paths of our jazz“. (MF Dnes, CZ)
„There is one thing that unifies the whole CD: a supreme lyricism, an impressionistic attempt to captivate the musical momentum, but not to do it too violently so that the sacred instant does not break up into pieces“. (iDNES, CZ)
