"The Eva Quartet is one of the most consistently exciting polyphonic ensembles operating out of Bulgaria ... The Arch is a series of cross-cultural collaborations with the Eva Quartet and the French musician and soundscape maestro Hector Zazou (1948-2008) in the driving seat ... The Arch's musical territory conjures folk of varying stripes, Christian hymnody, Ottoman resonances, electronica, jazz and spoken word. If that sounds unfocussed, be disabused immediately. This project and package in every sense does honour to Hector Zazou's memory and musical otherness. He was, after all, one of world music's greatest maestros and manipulators. And the Eva Quartet's singing is to dream for. The Arch is simply Europe's finest, most listenable world music declaration of faith to cross these ears this century".
