If there’s one problem with the 884,647 words Shakespeare wrote, it’s that they’ve all been performed already. What about The virtually infinite number of words he hasn’t written...yet? The players of As You Will invite you to a show where we will bring to life all the plays and poetry the immortal bard would have written if he hadn’t gone and died. Huzzah!”

In a world and mind cluttered with falsity and a distorted collective perception, it is necessary to maintain there is a truth and that one day, we will see ourselves and our own beauty in the midst of this illusion. As the poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz writes:
Perhaps the mirror of the world will clear once again—
perhaps, once again, our gaze will travel to the limits of sight.

other better. His playing is smart but unpretentious, logical yet unrestrained. That kind of balance is hard to
achieve in jazz.”-- Jazz Times

“His chops, lust for musical life and don't-box-me-into-a-stylistic-corner mentality make him seem like the musical offspring of trumpeters Dave Douglas and Ambrose Akinmusire.” -All About Jazz

Martin will explore music from his recently release album, Tenderness is Silent, with a new instrumentation.
"Nevin's goal isn't to overpower or impress the listener, but rather to present a way of experiencing the music that is based on deep intuition and an emotional connection. It's a distinctive approach, particularly for a debut record, and that it works as well as it does here is a reflection of Nevin's promise as a composer and bandleader.” -Troy Dostert (All About Jazz)
