Ezra Weiss “A bold, inspired figure in the contemporary jazz arranging scene.”
Liam Sillery “Sillery's sweet tone can cause mallards to swoop from the rafters...”
Adam Shulman “...a fresh-sounding, soulful endeavor...(Shulman's) approach to playing and composing has the potential to reach a wide-ranging audience while remaining mindful of artistic integrity.”
The Taylor / Fidyk Big Band “Hard driving & cookin' band with the real deal goods. This is the kind of writing and playing that every big band fan dreams of. A must have in yours and my collections.”
Juli Wood “Wood, after all, owns a big and burly tone on tenor, her husky sound, deep rhythmic accents and prolific phrasemaking consistently commanding attention.”
Randy Halberstadt “I love hearing Randy play. He has humor, drama, conviction, and a sense of purpose in his approach to music.”
Errol Rackipov “...his compositions combine modern jazz and classical elements with the influence of Bulgarian folk music, and his multifaceted arrangements move becomingly from refined lyricism to spirited exaltation...This is a must hear project.”
Kelley Johnson “...wisps of Carmen McRae's ginger snap, Betty Carter's yawning reach, Anita O'Day's feline purr and Nancy Wilson's crystalline enunciation...just tune in to her sailing, buoyant rhythm section and her bright, eminently convincing musicianship.”
Marco de Carvalho “As a guitar player Carvalho is cliche-free, non-flamboyant, and mature, with firm fingering, economical strumming, wealthy economic ideas and chords, and an understated yet firm sound”
Mhondoro “...they bring an exciting cocktail that properly tightens the links between Western jazz and African traditions. A startling album and one for the year-end lists without a doubt!”
