'I can honestly say that Alyn Cosker is one the best drummers I have ever played with. He is equally at home in a small group setting , with all of the sensitivities that go with it, and then changes gears to be the driving force behind a large ensemble. Alyn Cosker can basically do it all, adding his own style to the mix. I look forward to playing with him again in the future!' - Saxophonist Bill Evans
