... extraordinary talent... a wonderful accompanist and soloist. - Eddie Henderson. Los Angeles-based pianist/composer/arranger Michael Orenstein comes to his debut recording with a stout jazz education pedigree and ten years of topflight performance experiences, all shining through on this robust set of 8 originals & intricate arrangements of "Giant Steps" and a Herbie Hancock tribute. Much like two major influences, Hancock & Billy Childs, Orenstein's arrangements are surprising and dynamic with an expansive sound palette, challenging any limitations of the jazz quartet. Orenstein's "Aperture" focuses light on a prodigious young talent with a doubtlessly promising future. "... one of the most talented and creative young musicians I have ever heard." - Dan Wall
