“A solid, sitting down jazz debut, he teams with Kenny Werner, who brings the chops to keep the wheels on the track, and art is born.„
— Chris Spector - Midwest Record
“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
“The Lighthouse shines as a beacon on Andrea Veneziani, a firm, gentle leader with a sprightly sense of melody, keen ear for ensemble interaction, and a didactic nose to sniff out and codify instructive lessons.„
— Fred Bouchard - The New York City Jazz Record
