Quotes about Rahsaan's Mosaic:

"a 95-minute masterpiece..." - JazzTimes Magazine

"Sometimes there’s actually something very right about bucking the trends, following your gut and going big, as saxophonist Rahsaan Barber ably demonstrates with Mosaic."

- Dan Bilawky (JazzTimes Magazine)

"Recorded amid the pandemic, Mosaic somehow manages to capture the vibe of the proverbial smoke-filled, wood-paneled jazz club of yore: offering an expansive collection of vintage-flavored straightahead jazz...and for all the throwback vibes Mosaic has to offer, it also offers timely statements." - Ayana Contreras, (Downbeat Magazine)
