Album Notes & Community Reviews

Hungarian guitar virtuoso Gabor Szabo seamlessly blended his classical technique and distinct Eastern European heritage with contemporary classical elements and early jazz fusion. 'Dreams' is beautifully mellow and remarkably lush, weaving highly rhythmic, slightly psychedelic acoustic playing through deeply calming, progressive chamber-jazz orchestrations.
