From performances at the Syracuse JazzFest, "Original and compelling music reminding us what a wide-open world jazz really is.
The Bridge successfully spans many islands of jazz...there was a taste of this and a dash of that.
It all added up to a unique and delicious string stew....All the while, the musicians were confident enough to march to their own muse." Mark Bialczak--Syracuse Post Standard
