"Paul Giess is an emerging original voice in Philly's jazz scene. He's a patient teacher, a tireless composer and an aggressive improviser. It all becomes evident when you see him play."
-Homer Jackson, Director of Philadelphia Jazz Project
"It's not ever day that you come across a musician who can play well AND teach well. Paul Giess is one of those people. Not only did he inspire me by playing his heart out everyday, he also inspired me by knowing exactly how to word his methods, and easily convey correct and efficient ways to becoming a better player. Being instructed by him in jazz combo was educational and exciting, and playing in ensembles with him was always a pleasure."
-Chris Hochkeppel, Chamber Jazz Student at Louisiana State University
