Reviews
Pianist Ted Rosenthal's latest releases reveal an expert craftsman and an inventive artist who is most capable when expanding and interweaving circumscribed genres and styles.
— Elliott Simon, AllAboutJazz-New York
Rosenthal's level of technique and musicianship is top notch and brings new and refreshing interpretations of jazz standards
— Craig W. Hurst, JazzReview.com
Rosenthal musters considerable flair, power and beauty... scores big with two-handed artfulness, ideas galore and abundant technique.
— Nancy Ann Lee, Jazz Times
A pianist of rare insight and personality. I am particularly taken with his lovingly historical grasp of jazz piano's panoply.
— Richard Palmer, Jazz Journal
His classically modernist take on Powell and Evans fits hand-in-glove with the improvised Beethoven.
