:: Amazing Sounds Review - 2004
In this album, pianist Rene combines his Classical background with his side within the
New Instrumental Music. The result is a collection of very pleasant melodic pieces.
Part of the themes are composed by him, whereas the rest are versions of famous pieces
from different composers (Andrew Lloyd Weber, Chopin, Camille Saint Saens, Debussy, Eric Satie,
John Barry), performed with the personal style of Rene's that contributes a much romantic,
warm dimension. In "Soulmates", the piano has a basic role, always being well cushioned by
other instruments.

:: Smother.net Review - 2004
Chicago's own Rene enhances the romantic spirit that's already typically present in great
pianist works by offering selections by Chopin, Debussy, and Andrew Lloyd Weber to showcase
his talent for tinkling keys like only the best can. His knack for finding some of Broadway's
classics and giving them a breath of fresh air is superb and he even finds time to explore
the nuances of lovely classical pieces, brushing off the dust,and giving them his own unique
flair for the romantic in all our souls. Beautiful.

:: Midwest Record Recap Review - 2004
After years of being a Chicago rocker, he moved over to the softer side of things and has been
carving out quite a niche coming right down the middle ala Danny Wright. With a multi-instrument
attack rounding things out, this is some of the classiest dinner music you are going to come across.
Sweet set that doesn't rock the boat and fills the bill it sets out to.
