about

"A familiarity with Aaron Copland's "Appalachian Spring" helps to achieve a deeper appreciation of Crossing Brooklyn Ferry. Furic-Leibovici's work is certainly personal. Most here, are entirely his composition. This highly interpretative work uses Copland as a springboard to its own democratic frontiers of variations. Furic-Leibovici's work is also a mini-history, a linear look back on jazz chronology. The work being simpler, more traditional and gradually accruing more modern and challenging free jazz elements, before choosing quietude and an increasingly spiritual introspection in the ending triptych, "Song of the Universal," "Evening Prayer" and "Ending." Conceived, and expected, as a majestic and stunning whole, Crossing Brooklyn Ferry is a magnificent opus from this French musician and creator."

"The superb arranging talents of this French-born, Brooklyn based composer and double-bassist, highlight this very imaginative recording."

STÉPHANE FURIC-LEIBOVICI France

His compositions include music for chamber orchestra and ensembles, solo instrumental, vocal works. ... more
