Presence Of Joy

"It’s great playing with Tisziji because he is right in the middle of the music. Tisziji goes right to the center of the music bringing everybody with him. He seizes the right moment. He won’t play unless it’s right." —Dave Liebman

"Tisziji’s music creates a good feeling. I never really get a chance to play like this. This kind of music is not played very much. It’s great that Tisziji is putting it out there like this. He is giving people a chance to hear music which they seldom get a chance to hear. Check this out." —Rashied Ali

"Playing with Tisziji Muñoz on Presence of Joy was like jumping out of a plane without a parachute, or like flying the trapeze without a net. This music sounds different every time you listen to it." —Don Pate

"Tisziji's music is more directed towards the inner senses and the deepest feelings. His music is unhampered by technical things, you know, chords, time, structure, whatever. This is direct expression. I am always regenerated, refreshed, replenished and inspired by playing his music. I rarely get a chance to play this way. This music energizes me. I rarely get the chance to play with so much freedom." —Bernie Senensky
