"Alto saxophonist Brent Birckhead, in a class by himself, glided over the chord changes during his solos with seeming effortlessness, like an Olympic weight lifter toying with a feather."

--Giovanni Russonllelo -Capitalbop


"Brent Birckhead has a unique sound that demands attention to detail—outwardly, his sound is broad and creamy, but upon close listen his tone betrays grit and razor-sharpness."
