Press Quotes

“…one of the most brilliant brass players of his generation…”
The Toronto Star (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)

“Outrageously Gifted…quite simply phenomenal”
Le Devoir (Montreal, Quebec, Canada)

“creative genius…”
The Record (Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada)

“Guy Few is exactly what the concert stage needs - someone who is willing to take chances and upset the status quo”
Vancouver Province (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada)

“…the Nigel Kennedy of the trumpet”
The Windsor Star (Windsor, Ontario, Canada)

“Few, minus his enormous talent, skill and musical soul, would be little more than a novelty act”
The Sunday Herald (Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada)

“The thrillingly fearless Canadian trumpeter did justice to the full meaning of the word “virtuoso”.”
The Register Guard (Eugene, Oregon, USA)

“Flexible tone, dazzling technique and go for broke tendencies on both instruments…”
The American Record Guide (USA)

“Wild and joyous”
The News-Gazette  (Champaign-Urbana, Illinois,  USA)

“Few displayed lightness and a humaneness that reminded this listener of another Canadian, Glenn Gould.”
The Tribune  (San Luis Obispo, California, USA)

“He coaxed out each note with brilliant clarity and restraint, dropping them like perfect pearls along a string.”
The Press Democrat (Santa Rosa, California, USA)

“If anyone can make the corno da caccia sound easy to conquer, not to mention downright sexy, it’s Few.”
The Register Guard (Eugene, Oregon, USA)

“Few easily maintained the silky, lyrical legato that infuses all his performances, at the same time making the horn’s muffled timbre sing …with ...bright golden tone.”
The Register Guard (Eugene, Oregon, USA)

“Astonishing virtuosity and energy”
The Halifax Herald (Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada)

“…the orchestra soloists were…superb, including Guy Few playing trumpets flawlessly”
The Oregonian (Eugene, Oregon, USA)

“The audience was abuzz as the concert began…because of Few’s dramatic entrance.  Those familiar with the trumpeter will know that he is anything but a staid classical musician.  He walked out on stage in black leather pants, a white shirt open to mid-chest and a floor-length flowing black coat that evoked the popular movie “The Matrix”
Luckily, his trumpet playing matches his brash presence.  Swift passages were played with ease and long legato lines sang”
The Register-Guard (Eugene, Oregon, USA)

“Few was again a remarkable instrumental soloist whose impeccable control matched Jette’s singing.”
The Register-Guard (Eugene, Oregon, USA)
