Brown, Rob -& Juan Pablo Carletti-
Fertile Garden
'Fertile Garden' is a dynamic collaboration between New York alto saxophonist Rob Brown, known for his work with William Parker, and Argentinian percussionist Juan Pablo Carletti, a member of Brown's quartet. This album features two expansive improvisations, each around 30 minutes, exploring a wide range of duo interactions - from energetic bursts to more relaxed, segmented passages. Brown's saxophone style, with irregular vibrations, broken octave tonguing, and pointillist phrasing, creates a distinctive tone, while Carletti's rhythmic versatility complements and enhances the narrative with inventive drum patterns and pulsating grooves. Fans of free jazz and improvisation get captivated by 'Fertile Garden's exploration of sound, space, and artistic synergy.
