“A quartet that has developed its own interactive reality. There is much free-wheeling exuberance here, and the music swings like mad. The two horns work beautifully together and solos are wonderful. The goal of freedom of expression for each member as shown in Coleman’s ground-breaking music is fully evident.” - Keith Black, Winnipeg Free Press
Reviews
The CODE Quartet offers well-blended, tightly arranged and exploratory jazz with contemporary, wistful, modern jazz arrangements that hold-up their original compositions like banners in the wind. - Dee Dee McNeil, MusicalMemoirs.
The whole album simply achieves a no-holds-barred goal that is surely is what was intended. Shifting time signatures and dissonant duets blend comfortably with thoughtful or laid-back moments. All members, especially Jensen and French, are stunners. - Keith Black, Winnipeg Free Press.
This is a loose band that actually swings. That is not something to be taken for granted nowadays. - Lynn René Bayley, ArtMusicLounge.com
