Time Change: album reviews

"Milan Verbist: mature jazz from a young trio. Strong work from a piano trio that makes a big impression right from the start." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - De Standaard (BE)

"The young Verbist's playing shows astonishing maturity and his touch is surprising." - Patrick Auwelaert, Jazz & Mo' (BE)

"Milan Verbist plays as if time stands still (...) With a steady hand, he leads his trio through a rich program." - Eddy Westveer, JazzRadar (NL)

"This is the arrival not of a promising newcomer but of a fully formed artist…" - Paris Move (FR)

"With Djeezes and The Silence Between, the pianist once again presents himself as a multifaceted composer (...) Conclusion to the album: a contemplative, concertante listening pleasure!" - Belgieninfo (BE)

"There is a tenderness to the touch of Milan Verbist on the piano keys (...) Verbist is quite the composer, offering five original songs for this project (...) - Making a Scene Magazine (USA)

"Pianist Milan Verbist has a touch and style that feels like it has imbibed deeply the waters of Brad Mehldau, thoroughly modern in harmonies yet linked to the vintage past." - JazzWeekly (USA)

"(...) a solid set of tracks from introspect to lively. Flutter Step is rearranged to fit and a terrific closer for this strong set." - Bman's Blues Report (USA)
