Blind jazz pianist composer. Protege of Clark Terry  & Quincy Jones

DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE

"Kauflin's execution, his ability to ripple waves of notes from the keyboard flawlessly and evoke colorful meadows of sound is unequivocally superb"

NEW YORK TIMES

"Kauflin favors a clarity of touch and ideas.  His writing is balanced, tempering post-bop tendencies with the assurances of the gospel church"

THE TIMES

"What separates Kauflin from the others is the soulfulness of his repertoire - this is a musician who wants to do more than make you admire his virtuosity"
