In the December 2014, reviewer Russ Musto wrote, "For all his work with ensembles of varying instrumentation, it is still his role as the man in the middle of many great piano trios for which he is best known." The article quotes {{m: Bill Charlap = 5644}}, saying "George Mraz is a master musician. He's a virtuoso in every sense of the word, yet his technical command is always in service of the music."

Having performed together in many settings with a wide palette of colors to choose from, this seasoned trio has solidified into a true musical experience of the highest caliber. All three musicians have world-class jazz credentials.
