“Of the standards, Monk’s “Pannonica” and Parker’s “Segment” stand out. One of Veneziani’s best pieces is the shimmering, mid-tempo “Mark Rothko”, which features a solo introduction by the bassist.„
— Jon Ross - Downbeat
“Repertoire well conceived, musicians in great shape and a vibrant interplay make Oltreoceano a fine work, which reconciles with the formula of the piano trio, too often left at the mercy of clichés and tedious solutions.„
— Roberto Paviglianiti - All About Jazz Italia
“The Andrea Veneziani Trio, with the Italian bassist joined by pianist Kenny Werner and drummer Ross Pederson, exudes great spirit amidst dynamic interplay on the self-produced Oltreoceano.
This calling card of an album makes for most enjoyable listening, and is worth seeking out, particularly for jazz piano trio fans.„
— Stuart Kremsky - International Association of Jazz Record Collectors
“The musical dialogue between Kenny Werner and Andrea Veneziani appears to be very balanced.
The album appears to reflect at its core the spirit of Monk, Evans and Parker.„
— Ferdinand Dupuis - Jazz’Halo
“Bassist and composer Andrea Veneziani has assembled another gem of a recording with his latest, The Lighthouse.„
— Glenn Daniels - The Jazz Page
