“Trumpeter Vicente is a significant emerging talent, a brassy, forceful trumpeter with a quick mind…”
Stuart Broomer
/ Point Of Departure
“His brass sensibility calls upon the free playing of Don Cherry and the free bop of Freddie Hubbard in equal measure.”
Ken Waxman
/ New York City Jazz Record
“The lyrical component manifests most obviously in Vicente’s trumpet, (…) Of course, the trumpeter also splutters and exclaims explosively. But whatever he does packs charge.”
John Sharpe
/ All About Jazz
“That’s one of the joys of listening to him play: he’s got an undeniable ear for melody, but he’s also not afraid to draw all of the primal physicality out of his horn – sometimes he sputters, sometimes he spits out lines with acerbic intensity, but he always keeps your attention.”
Derek Stone
/ The Free Jazz Collective
“Luís plays trumpet notefully flued and sonically informed.”
