SUITE LATINA in the media

Eric Cathan, Guitar Passion, 1 June 2019

There is wonderful music on this CD, the works are intimate, delicate in execution, evocative… The music ‘sends you day dreaming’, the tone is superb, warm and beautiful…Oliver establishes his own unique ‘guitar voice’, reminding me of the intimacy achieved by guitarists such as Francis Klenyjans and a rare few ….

Fanfare magazine, USA, issue May/June 2019, Dave Saemann

This is music that combines atmosphere with self-revelation. Even in its most extrovert moments, Fartach-Naini mines the intimate gestures that explain the hold that the guitar has on our imaginations. As Duke Ellington would have said, he is an artist ‘beyond category.’ … The CD’s sound engineering is superb, warm and colorful. Oliver Fartach-Naini is an artist we all should come in contact with. He is an essential conduit for some of today’s best music. Highly recommended.

Limelight Magazine Australia, Angus McPherson, 2 May 2019

Haunting, mellow sonority …. Fartach-Naini’s high register is exquisitely crisp and rounded.

All in all, this release is an interesting exploration of the myriad forms and styles that have become so much a part of the modern guitar repertoire – and with warm, confident performances from Fartach-Naini, it’s also a very pleasant way to spend an hour. 4 Stars

The Australian, 26 January 2019 by Graham Strahle

His technique enables him to produce a remarkably wide and nuanced expressive palette of sounds. Suite Latina, his first solo album, reveals a musician of the very top order.    …    Fartach-Naini captures the spirit of this music with effortless verve and joy. Beautifully recorded in Incheon, South Korea, it is an inspired album. 

5/5 Stars

Oliver Fartach-Naini makes the guitar sing in ‘Suite Latina’ recording

Oliver Fartach-Naini has created an album that demonstrates not only his technical prowess on the guitar, but his ability to produce a tasteful recording that flows organically from piece to piece. … An album featuring a vast array of beautiful tone colours and pieces that make the guitar sing, this will be a recording that I come back to many times, and I’m sure every listener will feel the same.
