"Sometimes you have to play a long time to be able to play like yourself."
Miles Davis

"The creation and playing of music should be a wonderous expression of the truth, a shining glimpse of the human heart in joy or pain.
There is an innocence to this; at least there should be. Jeff Oster writes and plays music like a child feels sunlight.
There's no ego, no artifice; just the truth.
There have been a million recordings of horn players, some of them utterly brilliant, but in all these recordings there has never been anyone who incorporates so many influences or blurs genres or traditions as gracefully as Jeff Oster does.
The elements are familiar, but the synthesis is unique.
This is a milestone recording."

"I have recorded many of the world's greatest trumpet and flugelhorn players. In fact, some of the most important that music has to offer.
So of course I thought that I had heard all that the flugelhorn and trumpet had to say musically.
That was before I had heard and mixed Jeff Oster's wonderful music.
Talk about tone, intonation, phrasing and all things wonderful about the instrument,
Jeff has it all...
Listen to this fabulous music with open ears and open hearts, please..."
