“Midnight by Uros Baric is filled with beautiful performances, sensitive phrasing, as well as elegant and colourful arrangements. His use of guitar orchestration perfectly suits the collection of works creating a warmth for the album that we wish would never end. Ample cross-string legato, flowing melodic phrasing, and a very sensitive touch make this album truly virtuosic in its musicality. Highly recommend.” - This Is Classical Guitar
