His style is soft, clean, melodic and highly emotional. Of his style on Insight, the critic Jack Massarik in Jazzwise said [this is] “Melodic music played with sensitivity and conviction in a style that borrows more from folk and contemporary classical music than jazz…”. Bruce Lindsay in All About Jazz wrote “Pysz favors a crystal clear acoustic sound, delicate yet precise finger-work and fluid melodies. Pysz overdubs lead and rhythm guitar on much of the album, creating a fuller, richer sound in so doing. “Those Days” is a fine opening track: Pysz’ lead lines are forceful and upbeat, his rhythm playing full-toned.” In London Jazz News, John Watson wrote of a performance in March 2017 “However impressive his technique may be, it is certainly not “showy” – everything is at the service of creative expression.”
