"Tobin Mueller proves his originality, his inquisitiveness as a musician and a thinker, and his fluid, full throttle energy as a pianist. One continually has the sense that the piano is Mueller’s alter ego, and when he sits down to play, to arrange or improvise, he is engaging in an exciting dialogue of discovery with his inner self."
- Carla Maria Verdino-Süllwold, Fanfare Magazine

"His recordings dance in and out of motifs and themes while paying great respect to the jazz composers who came before. He makes his interpretation sound effortless, expansive, beautiful and awesome..."
