"Beautiful round tone"-Jimmy Owens, trumpeter (with Duke Ellington, Slide Hampton) and educator
"A great talent"-Phil Markowitz, pianist (with Dave Liebman, Chet Baker), educator
"Something special"-Richie Cole, saxophonist (with Phil Woods, Eddie Jefferson)
"Jake uses his ears like no one else in the band. Watch
out for Jake Varmus!"
-Steve Grismore, guitarist (with Tim Hagans, Matt Wilson)
“What a sound!”-James Dixon, orchestral conductor (with Quad City Symphony, Chicago Symphony)
"I recently had the privilege of
recording a CD with
Jacob Varmus and a very talented group of musicians that he
assembled. I have recorded numerous New York artists in my
fifteen years of studio recording and Mr. Varmus was one of the most
organized and musically together trumpeters and leaders yet."
-Jim Clouse, chief recording engineer, Park West Studios
"Jacob has an exquisite sound on his trumpets, muted or not, reminding me of the child-like wonder of Don Cherry. His muted playing is especially endearing, reaching back to older, more innocent and bluesy times." -Downtown Music Gallery, August 26, 2005, New American Wing review
