“The trombonist Barrie Webb, who instigated this collaboration with seven Japanese composers, deserves congratulation. Each piece…is uniquely satisfying in its own way.” ××× - Stephen Pettitt (The Sunday Times)
“this music is well worth getting to know, not least for Barry Webb's unstinting commitment to the project and the consistency of his playing.” – Musical Opinion
