Ruby Braff complimented her singing: "That's the way to sing —simply and with spirit." Hanna is a musician who loves melodies, a wit who savors words, so that she honors the song rather than making it her personal trampoline...Her approach is reminiscent of the great forbears Louis and Bing, of course, but also Hodges and Hackett—artists who could read the notes off the page and make the written melody sound new by shifting an emphasis, hesitating a fraction of a second, making it all moving and fresh.

—From the album notes by Michael Steinman, Professor of English at Nassau Community College in New York and author and editor of six books, whose jazz reviews appear in The Mississippi Rag and Cadence
