"After a listen to this exciting new jazz vocalist's debut, my first thoughts were where did Leonisa Ardizzone come from and where has she been?" – Michael Gladstone, All About Jazz

"Afraid of the Heights, is filled with errorless instrument play and a female vocalist that will hook you in and put you in a feel good dance mood." - Sari Kent, Celebrity Cafe

"An attractive CD, her first, by a singer who has clearly had a lot of experience." - Bruce Crowther

"You know it when you see it - good craftsmanship. You can see it in a piece of furniture.  In an automobile, or in a painting that hangs on the wall. And you can hear it, too. A group of musicians who have been playing together for any length of time just fit together, better than most. And so it is with this disc." - Doug Boynton

"Afraid of the Heights is a very well done recording by a singer that shows incredible promise.  I expect we shall hear plenty from her in the very near future" - George Harris, All About Jazz(LA)

"Ardizzone has a lovely textured voice and most importantly she sings in tune with super phrasing." - John Gilbert, ejazznews

Leonisa Ardizzone proves to be a multi-faceted vocalist on her debut CD.” ~ Ken Dryden, All Music Guide

“L'esordio della cantante Leonisa Ardizzone è un simpatico disco autoprodotto che si fa ascoltare con molto piacere.” -Vittorio Lo Conte, All About Jazz Italia

“This is a short but very sweet new notice of an arrival on the jazz vocal scene!” – Michael Gladstone, All About Jazz

 “I found myself hoping that I would find an opportunity to see her and her group at a gig in the not too distant future, for she is a vocalist who swings, articulates and phrases wonderfully from the first notes of ‘Anthropology’ to the closing notes of ‘You Go To My Head’.” – Jersey Jazz

 “Jazz singer Leonisa Ardizzone takes us back to the happy days of Swing and fun, along with plenty of variety.  Her vocalese, scat singing, and original lyrics fit comfortably iin the pocket.” – Jim Santella, Cadence
