What they’re saying about Daryl Kojak
and “Notes From The Pilgrimage”

“Mr. Kojak uses his solo piano as few pianists can, to create a new mood, new texture, a different attack for each song that makes each one special, individual.” --Show Business

“Kojak’s music creates lovely moods and is a great fit for romantic summer evenings” --WRTN-FM

“Kojak’s well-polished technique can shine - his jazz and classical training lift the compositions...” “...a fine ensemble of strings, horns and woodwinds, evoking even more the classical aspects of his compositions.” “A fine offering with widespread appeal.” --NAPRA ReView

“Like the famed Windham Hill cache of albums, this debut CD by Daryl Kojak is, at once, bucolic and intensly musical. It’s clearly and “easy listen” album. With extended passages of fine jazz tuned with classical overtones, the album seemingly marks the start of an artist who will make a serious solo mark. Listening to the introspective and melodious “Prayer” takes the listener on a journey that is haunting and mystical. “Notes From The Pilgrimage” is a magical fusion of gentle moods and hypnotic nuances that are subtle and reflective from a composer of virtuosic merit. The album evokes into a series of poetic panoramas that emote a sensuality that is a combination of New Age Jazz and spontaneous improvisations placing Kojak in a league with the likes of Vangelis and George Winston.” --Backstage

The orchestrations and musical directing of Daryl Kojak are absolutely beautiful. It’s wonderful to hear music in a new way.” --WNYX-TV

“One of the best piano players in New York” --WBAI-FM

“Musical director Daryl Kojak has established himself as one of the best on the scene.” --Backstage

“master manipulator of the piano” https://www.tradebit.com

“dynamic jazz pianist” --Cabaret Hotline
