What others have said about Gary's music... 'This is a new, cohesive, one-of-a-kind sound, an intelligent fusion of acoustic and electronic pianos, profoundly arranged.' - Chiwah, The Light Connection 'New age jazzbo Bryant knows how to tackle the form and not add cliches when it would be so easy to do so. A tasty work that incorporates his varied piano interests, this sixth album of his has plenty on the ball... this is one of the leading lights for the form and the area.' - Chris Spector, Midwest Record Recap 'This high-energy collection is jazz influenced with a hint of classical elegance and a touch of New Age. Bryant fuses jazz, New Orleans boogie woogie and romantic classical ballads into a new sound that is unique.' - Accent Gary Paul Bryant is one helluva pianist. Seriously. He has jazz chops up one side and down the other. -Brett McCallon, Splendid 'This CD is quite wonderful and we will conitnue to give it good airplay.''
