'Greek God of Guitar'

Pavlo has come full circle since he
introduced his Mediterranean brand
in 1998, once again recording an
All-Instrumental album.  Complete
with all brand new compositions, this
album highlights Pavlo's unmatched
ability to melodically unite world
instruments into his sound
seamlessly, all the while staying true
to his distinct Mediterranean guitar
signature.
"Have the courage to do what you
love, and the drive to do it well."

Every now and then you come across a
voice that catches your attention. It may
be its skillful technique or soulful
authenticity that catches your ear. All
you know is that you’re captivated,
moved, soothed, inspired. Voices like
that are rare in our climate of teenaged
popstars and prepackaged celebrities.

"Now here is a voice for the
future of jazz."


Carol’s impeccable vocals and finely
tuned musicianship have made her a
favourite among musicians and
audiences alike.
Her current CD A Night in Tunisia
showcases a star-studded band and
has received critical acclaim. Ted O’
Reilly wrote “[Carol McCartney is] sweet
and swinging, warm, dramatic and
rhythmically assured at all tempos. The
last word Carol sings is ‘Goodbye’, but I
hope she soon says ‘Hello’ again.”
