“Whether you call this jazz, Balkan or Middle Eastern music – it’s really all of the above – it’s one of the most delightful albums of recent months.” (New York Music Daily, NYC)
“L’ultimo album del trio, dal titolo Digging the sand, è molto di più di un normale turkish o mediterranean jazz, perché ha un’ottica che mira allo sfruttamento delle risorse tecniche degli strumenti, al limite dell’equilibrio della musica improvvisata.” (Percorsi Musicali, IT)
“It is a special record with unique music, with which AVA Trio has firmly established itself in contemporary modern music. Excellent!” (JazzFlits, NL)
