The quartet's free-flowing explorations are a wonderous "Portrait In Sound" indeed. I loved it!"

At a time when jazz lurches back to embrace more populist leanings, Klaus Suonsaari is headed in the other direction. Along with my man Scott Robinson, Klaus is advancing a concept I find very enjoyable to listen to. This band lives up to the ideal of jazz as a thinking man's music. Bravo.
