Ari is widely noted particularly for his drumming not being relegated to just keeping tempo, or being a side issue to the music he plays in, but rather for elevating drumming as an indispensable part of the performance.

"From the physical mayhem of Ari Hoenig’s drumming — limbs flailing, face contorted in agonized delight — comes music of unsurpassed depth and control." (David Adler-Philadelphia Weekly)
"Ari Hoenig is one of the most maniacally obsessive, spasmodic and musical drummers in jazz." (Jazz Times
