"Melodic... highly intelligent approach to jazz." -Skyway News   Little’s originals are thoughtful, gliding affairs that carefully highlight solos rich in rhythm and melody, while his arrangements of the standards "Tangerine" and "Charade" are nuanced pieces whose wafting notes exhale vast expanses of colored air. Through it all, Little retains his own voice and assuredly announces himself as one of the area’s bright new jazz performers." -Vickie Casey, Minneapolis Star Tribune   "Not only does Little write snazzy heads, but his solos often match his composed tunes for melodic density. Little is equally comfortable swooping upward in an improvisatory quest or whispering with a seductive bass clarinet on "Charade." -City Pages   "A celebrated composer." -St. Paul Pioneer Press   "Smart post-bop writing, impeccable bandleading and taut, tasty soloing. Whether blue-grooving over a supple fleet beat or whipping out his bass clarinet for a romantic reverie, Little is in complete command and in great company." -Tom Surowicz, Minneapolis Star Tribune
