“Once in a great while, a musician emerges with such authority and such seemingly effortless originality that his place in the front ranks of his instrument is unquestioned. So it is with David Friesen.” Nat Hentoff

“David Friesen is doing for the bass what Pythagoras did for triangles.” Patrick Hinely/Jazz Magazine
