"Cory Barnfield's sound invites the listener to enjoy the beautiful bond between technical virtuosity and soulful expression.  With a distinctive touch, his playing ingnites the creative energy in our minds that transforms mere notes on the page into meaning.  Working with a talent like Cory has been (and still is) one of those life reminders for why I became a composer in the first place."

"Mr. Barnfield's playing has been described as “having a warm and expressive sound that speaks melodies easily with complete control of the full range of his instrument. There is a unique intimacy to his playing that is a delight to the listener. His fingers are precise, and rapidly allowing the music to flow unimpeded to the listener’s imagination no matter how difficult or easy. His articulation on saxophone is superb.”
