Debbie Burke review and interview

This new work showcases a head full of ideas and a heart open to the musical possibilities that Silberman has lovingly curated. It’s an experience we didn’t know we needed.

Americana Highway review by John Apice

[Beneath the Canopy is] a well-arranged set & a shining example of Ari’s ensemble. It never comes off as mannered. It’s a free-floating feel without chaos.

O’s Place Jazz Magazine

We liked the mellow “Waitin’”, “Blossoming into Blessing”, “Hummingbird”, and the bouncy swing of the title track with a warm sax from Silberman.

Jazz Weekly review by George harris

Silberman’s tenor has an easy swing on “Waitin’” and “Mack The Knife”…
