“Exceptional game of colors and delicate poetry”
Diario de Sevilla, 2017
“Exuding expressiveness and praiseworthy capacity of compenetration and sensitivity”
Correo de Andalucía, 2017
“Bernier and Duro have decided to turn into a guitar duo, and along the way have homogenized sound and personality, showing the cleanliness and refinement of their work as soloists, now in an amazing conjunction. They played with an extreme control, without ever overflowing the limits of good taste...”
Diario de Sevilla, 2018
"An interpretation as attentive to details and nuances as balanced in rhythm, (...) prodigious delicacy."
El Correo, 2019

First prize at the prestigious International Guitar Competition “Michele Pittaluga” in Alessandria (Italy)
"Absolute Excellence!"
La Stampa (Italy)
"Guitarist Bernier is the first prize winner of Italy’s Michele Pittaluga Competition…He is a fine player, with a virtuoso technique and a wide range of timbre and dynamics, imaginative and expressive."

Murray Charters
Brantford Expositor, August 2011 (Canada)

El Periódico Mediterráneo (Spain)
