There's playing of breath-taking intensity to be heard on this CD - it is exciting, richly communicative music. Tim Hagans plays with a strong, subtly expressive tone, as articulate as it is eloquent - regardless of the musical context. With its strong contours, Tim Hagans' trumpet sound glides weightlessly over Copeland's unusual harmonies. Piece after piece, it's a listening experience filled with refinement and magic.

PRESS QUOTES
"... Alone Together belongs to Hagans by virtue of its greater propensity for fiery swingers. ... Alone Together brings excitement back to the mainstream, thanks to its invention, interplay and musicality, as opposed to the much easier-to-find demonstrable chops." (AllAbout Jazz by John Kelman)

"... There's a Milesin cast to hagans's use of space and fluid surfing on the rythm section and on Copland's delightfully unexspected comping choices. ..." (Ray Comiskey, The Irish Times)

"... Hagans' trumpet sounds terrific, though, especially tart and grainy ..." (James Hale, Downbeat)

"... Hagans and company deliver adventurous mainstream jazz with heart and soul ..." (Troy Collins, All About Jazz)

"... it is modern jazz well written and arranged and wonderfully played ..." (Walter Kolosky, Jazz.com)

"... Hagans's smooth sound is pleasant and probing, and seems particularly suited to Copland's airy compositional skills ... The total package works surprisingly well and bears repeated listening ..." (Ralph A. Miriello, Jazz.com)

"Veteran trumpeter Tim Hagans always displays an expressive tone, whether on burning postbop numbers or decelerated ballads, and he wastes no time in showing both extremes on the new Alone Together ..." (Thomas Conrad, JazzTimes)
