“Between classicism and modernity, Orland’s playing is impressive with its inventiveness and virtuosic character.” - Christian Larrede, Jazz News

“Jonathan Orland belongs to a category of young musicians whose superlative technique allows them to dominate their instrument so perfectly that they give the impression to overcome every difficulty with ease, even on fast tempos. He demonstrates some uplifting boldness in the way he treats harmonies and a real capacity to compose beautiful melodies”. - Jacques Aboucaya, Jazz Magazine
