Steven Katz: Press Hype

Like any good resort, the Buccaneer Beach Hotel retains a rota of musicians to provide nightly entertainment. But nothing prepared us for Steven Katz, the guitarist who took the stage on Tuesday evening. We could hear him from our front door before we walked up hill to dinner, but we didn't really pay attention until we'd been seated and served. Then we noticed that he was extremely gifted. In the middle of the second set that we heard, he tossed out a feeler to see if anyone would mind some "classical" music. I didn't hear anybody's else's response because I was too loudly shouting that I wouldn't mind. Whereupon Mr Katz launched a sequence that began with Dowland and ended with Villa Lobos. I can't claim to be an aficionado of the guitar, but I know a virtuoso when I hear one, and Steven Katz could play anything, anywhere, and thrill his audience. What he is doing in St Croix, or the Virgin Islands, or the Antilles Greater and Lesser, is, from a personal standpoint, none of my business, but the question is not musically impertinent.

OUTSTANDING MUSICIANSHIP! REAL GUITAR MASTERY!


If you are searching for a guitar playing listening experience that can transport you to another world...a tropical one in particular...this is the one CD that will leave you in awe as well as inspired. Steven Katz: El Viajero is truly a one of kind treasure that you'll never get tired of listening to. A real creative masterpiece!

BOTH RELAXING AND EXHILERATING AT THE SAME TIME


Having first heard Steven while in St. Croix I was glad to receive "El Viajero". It brings back wonderful memories of an excellent vacation. AND people who have never heard his music are getting that opportunity! Keep on playing!!
