“My Favorite Things is, above all, a beautiful record. We don’t need to argue for its historical ‘importance’ or its radicalism.” - Penguin Jazz to Jazz

“It is an understatement to say that only a few records ever impacted the career of a musician –and the history of jazz for that matter– as much as My Favorite Things (1961). The four pieces that form the original album constitute a flamboyant demonstration of the art of quartet playing”. - Jazz Magazine
