Some reviews:

“Claude Bourbon aptly describes himself as a musical artist.  He uses a vast array of musical tools to paint a landscape we have all visited either in person or in dreams.”  – Mary Pat Cooney, FolkWorks

“Claude Bourbon weaved his songs through the audience as if on a journey through life, taking in different flavours of Europe and beyond… from classical openings, across a whole continent of cultural roots, holding audiences’ attentions under a musical spell, his music would not have been out of place in the courts of Emperors and Kings.” (G. Munn)

“Claude Bourbon is a unique figure today… his playing is almost indescribable“ – The Hook, Charlottesville, USA

“Never heard anyone get that much beautiful sound out of a J-45”, Bob, Tucson, AZ
