Setting aside of the obvious sheer talent, there’s more maturity and musicianship than ever before. Sungha might define the acoustic guitar for all of us for years to come.

On his second album you will discover the musician Sungha Jung and if I had to go for a year on a lonely island with only 3 CDs, this one would be one of them.
