..."His Keyboard stands at attention and returns soundbursts of stunning jazz for each touch of his nimble fingers... If his classical playing comes even close to his jazz performing, it must be something to behold".
Harriet Williamson
Music Players Magazine, August 1991
...irregularly cascading arpeggios, thickly hammered but smoothly rising chords that glint with traces of dissonance, chordal climbs up and down the keyboard, glistening, winding arpeggiated runs, and dense scales....His eager ability to call on the entire sweep of the keyboard, or his two handed approach that enabled him to toss knotty melodic and chordal functions back and forth like a softball prove that Kenny Drew Jr. has quantum leaped to success.
Gene Santoro
New York Daily News, February 23, 1994
...His abundance of technique and drive, his sensitive keyboard arranging and his imaginative use of the instrument's colors exhibit his salient musical virtues.
Chicago Reader, July 2, 1993
...Welcome to your dad's league, Kenny Jr.
Jazziz, May 1992
...Drew Jr. commands attention on his own merits....the depth and presence of his tone, the fast flying scales, the sweeping arpeggios, the melodic dialogues between the hands and the expressive nuances and shading.
Howard Reich, Arts Critic at the Chicago's Jazz Showcase
