RADIO AND REVIEWS


WQED FM Pittsburgh - "Drew Tretick’s Cinema Classics is a great favorite on the QED Morning Show. Wonderful arrangements, terrific choice of material, beautifully recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra, and top notch playing from Drew." - Jim Cunningham

JAZZ WEEKLY review by George Harris 5-12-2009:  "One of the key elements of any musician is to develop your own sound.  Violinist Drew Tretick has a tone that harkens back to the day when milking a note for all it’s worth was what brought the crowds in, and Tretick plays with the London Symphony Orchestra for an album’s worth of warm soundtrack pieces.  Most jazz oriented are the standards “For All We Know” and ”What a Wonderful World” which feature a Bechet-like vibrato that is quite bel canto.  All modern jazzers should take time to appreciate the time honored lesson displayed here that “it’s not what you say, but the way that you say it.”

ANDREA MORRICONE, composer (Cinema Paradiso): "Drew Tretick and the London Symphony Orchestra perform with such beauty and sensitivity."  Hear Drew's version of Cinema Paradiso at Andrea's website.

Don Magner, KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles: "Drew's artistry is unique, passionate and resides deep within me.  I am around music all day and must say, his music is of the best."
