Feather=s liner notes on debut album Naked Emotions: Rejto's flute is rich in
long, affirmative phrases decorated by all manners of trills, tremolos, growls
and other effects that never descend into gimmickry...Rejto, who was once
introduced as a guest soloist with Hubert Laws at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion,
sounded like a good bet for records with this diversified display of her well
honed talents." "Nika Rejto brought the house down!..." Downbeat Magazine,

stake a claim in the vast territory of mainstream jazz in recent years.@ Andrew
Gilbert ASuch pristine flute playing it=s hard to imagine she=s not touring the
world. all about jazz AGreat tunes, tasty arrangements, superb flute playing.@
Buddy Collette ANika=s music explores jazz standards, original classical
melodies, hints of Indian and Latin music and pieces that cross quite a few
musical boundary lines. Rejto is consistently colorful and inventive making this
both an explorative and an accessible effort.@ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
