Zuill's latest CD, released in May, has already been met with great acclaim:

"Bailey's mesmerizing, deeply committed performance puts this recording at the top, especially because of his warm, rounded tone and jaw-dropping clarity in lightning-speed runs."
--Roy Dicks, The News and Observer, 5/7/16
