“Tenor saxophonist Kirk MacDonald plays to the deep strengths of his instrument on The Revellers regarding tradition without becoming tradition’s slave.” Randall McIllroy – WINNIPEG FREE PRESS
“It’s a measure of MacDonald’s inventiveness that he manages to find new things to say with warhorses like Embraceable You and Body and Soul.” Paul Wells – MONTREAL GAZETTE
