"Ingenious improvisation, delicate passion, incisive trumpeting and purity of tone." - Dave Nathan, All Music Guide
"He moves with drama and mystery, the trumpet floating atop a solid rhythm section in a demonstration of applied impressionism. Excellent and highly recommended." - Jim Santella, All About Jazz
"Wonderfully eloquent and innovative, aspiring jazz players and aficionados alike would do well to add Into The Mist to their collection." - Joseph Bowman, International Trumpet Guild
"Forney sorts through his lush lexicon of trumpet tones and statements like a writer immersed in creation, selecting only the most suitably beautiful phrases and inflections. He conjures a line as a poet might, weighing its merits and strengths, then moving on to whichever idea seems the next most appropriate. Conveying comfort and emotion in ways that appeal to the more romantic areas of the mind and heart." - Todd S. Jenkins, American Jazz Symposium
