He is regarded as a musician's musician, the premiere soloist...Alex is that rare breed of performing artist with no artistic compromise in his personality. He has continued to pursue that infinite musical growth that eludes all but the most dedicated few.

It was an evening of guitar extravaganza...Domschot is destined for a paramount role in the music world. The Sun
Improvisation is Alex’s forte. He doesn’t discard traditional musical structures but attempts to transcend them - the result being an original musical entity.

Domschot responds with some deft impressionistic touches to help set the mood...this is jazz without any hyphens.

...displayed a mastery of sound, style and craft...Mr Domschot is a sonic shapeshifter.
