About

“Victor Blagoev is a consummate “session player’s bass player.” He’s skilled enough to excel in most styles of music, and tasteful enough to save the considerable extent of his command of the instrument for when the music demands it. Victor is a great hire for a very wide range of playing and recording situations from groove oriented stuff up to and including the very most difficult music.”

- Michael Pope, Bassist for Chick Corea, Al di Meola and David Sanborn
