“Bassist and leader Veneziani has a warm upright tone here reminiscent of the famed Bill Evans’ bassists. What makes Veneziani’s tone so rich is its warmth and ability to accompany like a vocalist rather than a metronome.„
— Marc Myers - JazzWax
“Bassist Andrea Veneziani leads a trio with Kenny Werner and Ross Pederson that shows the heart of a bopper as well as the mind of an experimenter.
Joy abounds with a dash of extra spice on this trio outing!„
— George W. Harris - Jazz Weekly
“Repertoire well conceived, musicians in great shape and a vibrant interplay make Oltreoceano a fine work, which reconciles with the formula of the piano trio, too often left at the mercy of clichés and tedious solutions.„
— Roberto Paviglianiti - All About Jazz Italia
“Best of 2012.„
— Brent Black - Critical Jazz
“Bassist and composer Andrea Veneziani has assembled another gem of a recording with his latest, The Lighthouse.„
— Glenn Daniels - The Jazz Page
