Reception
The Down Beat review by Alain Drouot states "Adasiewicz is a physical player equally at ease with material that requires a more gentle touch. His bell-like and resonant sound does not warrant any potent comparisons in the jazz world."
The All About Jazz review by Nic Jones says "Sure, it's possible to name check both '60s-era Bobby Hutcherson and Walt Dickerson as points of reference, but they serve simply to highlight the fact that Adasiewicz is—for want of a better way of putting it—of a modern persuasion in both his composing and playing."
In a review for JazzTimes Lloyd Sachs notes "Bridging stark minimalism and animated freebop, the music on Sun Rooms is in a state of constant motion—and constant reinvention."
The Point of Departure review by John Litweiler says "Adasiewicz almost always works in larger groups as a sideman. Maybe because of this trio's intimacy, this CD is the best, most revealing improvising I've heard from him."
