What people are saying.
-
“The whole album emphasizes Preminger's ability to interpret songs with economy, soul, and superior technique."
– Jack Kenny, All About Jazz on Noah Preminger’s Ballads
-
“Shore's trio is tight yet volatile, and Nevin and Mednard are dynamic collaborators. Sub Rosa is one of the essential piano trio recordings of 2025… Shore’s patient searching always brings surprising melodic epiphanies to the surface—revelations that were lingering submerged under his hands all along.”
— Stereophile, Thomas Conrad on Julian Shore Trio’s Sub Rosa
-
“Following in the footsteps of his tenor idols and forebears who brilliantly took to the ballad album format, Preminger has now carved out his own firm place in this subtlest of settings.”
— Dan Bilawsky, All About Jazz on Noah Preminger’s Ballads
-
“Jazz and rock intermingle here with quiet assurance, joined by subtle traces of global musical languages. Nothing feels forced; the transitions are organic, almost inevitable. The album occupies a liminal zone, somewhere between the novel and what might be called the fifth art, cinema, where sound suggests story without ever insisting on one.”
— Thierry De Clemensat, Paris Move on Luke Marantz and Simon Jermyn’s Echoes
-
“Shore’s latest is a mystery wrapped in charisma. His originals are tuneful and progressive, but with a hinterland of unease. A damn fine album...”
— The Times (London) Chris Pearson on Julian Shore’s Sub Rosa
-
“Echoes is the sound of two distinctive musical personalities converging and communing, free to follow each moment’s inspiration as it ripples outwards.”
— Bob Morello, “Facts on Wax,” Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
