“Kisor has some of the ebullience of the young trumpet masters of hard bop yore…there’s a kind of kindred energy in his playing, and he has quite a personal, immediate sound.” - The Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD, 6thEd.
“He’s always developing and playing new things…He’s a natural. He’s always played music, and he can play whatever he wants to at will.” - Peter Bernstein
