PRESS QUOTES:

​

"Tim Boniface is the real deal ... a strongly personal voice that conveys both conviction and meaning."

The Jazz Journal

​​

​

"Boniface has a confident, warm and versatile sound on both alto and tenor sax, soloing with an imagination that always keeps you engaged. And he has surrounded himself with excellent players. James Pearson, Malcolm Creese and Jon Ormston are with him all the way and it is their unity and cohesion behind a common vision that impresses."

Jazz Views

​​

​

​"An assured swinger with a joyous bouyancy in his playing"

Jazzwise

​​

​​

"A very fine player... a fine melodic sense both as a composer and an improvisor, and makes a wonderful focussed sound on his vintage horns. In the UK, the idea to give jazz a special place, a welcome, even a home, requires a rare combination of circumstances and people who want to make it happen. Tim Boniface – these things are not left to chance – ended the evening with Cannonball Adderley’s 'Things are Getting Better.'"

UK Jazz News

​​

​

"A swinging and highly accomplished saxophonist ... cool sounds and angular lines"

Bebop Spoken Here

​​

​

"Tim Boniface is a mesmerising stage presence - he combines super-upbeat solo blasts on his stylishly worn sax with lyrical ballads."

The Cambridge Critique

​​

​

On 'Psalter: Themes for Peace':

​

"Thoroughly engaging contemporary jazz... a terrific, thought provoking album"

All About Jazz 

​​

​

"An impressive piece of work distinguished by intelligent writing and excellent playing, with all four musicians impressing with their contributions ... excellent contemporary mainstream jazz performed by a first class quartet."
