"Rings" serves as an ideal introduction to new listeners and will hopefully make even more people discover Friedlander's wonderful music".The Jazz Trail review by Filipe Freitus stated the album "marks a welcoming return to a much more appealing creative freedom, mixing the incantations of the world music, the gallant tones of the modern classical, and the unexpectedness of the avant-garde jazz"

All compositions by Erik Friedlander.
