"Bryan Lopes is one of the most stylistically aggressive saxophonists living in the Southeast," states Jazziz writer James Rozzi. "His sound is a compendium of the very best jazz has to offer. He has studied the history of this music as it relates to his chosen horn, and presents a truly individual voice. With technique to spare over a four-octave range, Lopes displays maturity by using it wisely. When the energy level is up, he raises it even more. Then he can turn around and play the most heartfelt ballad."
Maturity, both as a musician and a human being are major attributes--rarely found in any one individual. Bryan Lopes maintains and nurtures both as he embarks upon a recording career sure to raise the standards of this all-encompassing music of the new century, called jazz.
