“Ikonen has an original approach (…) his work here that suggests the Ozella label have discovered a pianist of considerable potential.” –Stuart Nicholson, JazzWise (UK) June 2013

“Inventive, spright and clever, Bright is not just a good Nordic jazz record, it’s world-class good.” –Something Else Reviews (USA)

”Pianisti Kari Ikosen trion debyyttilevy Bright tuo poikkeuksellista valoa ja energiaa suomalaiseen nykyjazziin… Ikonen erottuu uljaasti edukseen tavanomaisista jazzliruttelijoista. Hän ei arkaile eikä säästele, vaan antaa musiikille koko sielunsa.” –Aamulehti
