WHAT THE PRESS SAYS
(Elena Mindru's Finnection meets Adam Baldych) "Almost equal work of the vocalist and the violin in the front row of the group is a rare combination in jazz, so it’s easy for the group to distinguish from the masses. Of course, the one’s attention is focused to Mindru’s originality as a singer. The sound is bright and clean, but still strong. The improvisation is freely expressed and natural.“ - Pentti Ronkainen for Suomijazz.com (FI)
"The warm-sounding Mindru is in control of the variety of beautiful styles and emotions, the interplay of the band is very well merged together.”
– Kauppalehti (FI)
