“A Uniquely gifted Artist”
~ KJAZZ Radio – Los Angeles CA

“This cellist is really unbelievable. All those classical chops plus he can improvise (stunning intro on your last piece).”
~ Larry Koonse – Grammy winning Jazz artist

“A strikingly original virtuoso cello statement!”
~ Geddy Lee – basist / vocalist (Rush)

“I think that the Jacob Szekely Trio, if based in Europe, would be recording for ECM. I say that as a giant compliment because of ECM’s attention to purity of sound. No where is that more evident than in the spaces between pianist Josh Nelson’s notes on the self titled album’s closing song, Postlude: Houston.”
~ Brian Arsenault – International Review of Music

“His Mixture of Rock and Post Bop is striking… Resonates as it charms”
~ James Crel – The Strad

“Ground Breaking!”
~ Eugene Friesen – Cello Pioneer, Multiple Grammy winner, Professor Berklee school of Music

“Szekely is emerging as a leader of the alternative- strings community”
~ Cornelius Dufallo – Strings Magazine
