‘The quintet displayed exceptional musical chemistry and sensitivity – not just a concert, but a masterclass in musical storytelling and collective expression. ARQ reminded us that jazz at its best is a conversation – full of emotion, nuance, and shared human experience’. Jazz in Europe June 2025
“Bright, open jazz music that rejoices in human experience without sentimentalising it. A collection of eight perfectly formed originals that makes the most of three standout soloists.”
BBC Music Magazine ★★★★
‘Inventive, colourful and unfailingly melodic, one of the best contemporary jazz groups around’ ★★★★½ thejazzmann.com (Jan 2025)
