Valiante, Jazzitalia<\/p>\n \u201cOlzer\u2019s unique disposition towards music and the intellectual awareness of a man of culture have undoubtedly defined him as a jazz musician of admirable expressiveness; this becomes evident in his lucid inventiveness, imaginative and melodic clarity, refined and attractive harmonic colorings.\u201d B.

Caprera, Dictionary of Jazz, Feltrinelli, 2014<\/p>\n \u201cThis ultra-refined recording of the pianist Roberto Olzer (Steppin\u2019 Out) is a clear example of how to make quality music of a disarming formal simplicity with a clear preference for the \u201cbeautiful\u201d, devoid of unnecessary stylistic ornamentation or exaggerated virtuosity.\u201d F. Peluso, Fedelt\u00e0 del Suono<\/p>\n \u201cA lovely album (Steppin\u2019 Out) of jewelled lyricism, by Italian pianist Roberto Olzer \u2026 very visual, each track seems to tell a story\u201d M.
