“Today’s best player of Scott Joplin music.”
– Trebor Tichenor, author of Rags and Ragtime
“In Scott Kirby’s playing we encounter the very essence of ragtime. He is the embodiment of the Scott Joplin ideal.”
– Edward A. Berlin, author of King of Ragtime: Scott Joplin and His Era
“Kirby is sensitive, without being self-indulgent. His technique is clear and eloquent, while retaining an earthy, down-home quality.”
– Linda Kohanov, CD Review
