Robert Len - Fragile (2014) [DSD64 + Hi-Res FLAC]

Robert Len has a varied and impressive track record. A veteran of the Montreal International Jazz Festival, he has also played Montreal's Olympic Stadium with Orchestre Métropolitain and the Toronto Jazz Festival with the Denny Christianson Big Band. Over the years Len has developed a passion for multi-ethnic instruments, particularly flutes and percussion. The music he creates on Fragile, in which passion, fieriness, freedom and zen spirit become entangled, is especially appealing.

Composer/arranger/musician/teacher, Robert Len is not an ordinary musician. A virtuoso of an incredible amount of instruments, Robert is accomplished in many styles of music from Jazz, Big Band, Pop, to Classical and New Age. In this album, he uses a unique combination of instruments which include the flugelhorn, trumpet, muted trumpet, classical and electric guitars, percussions and many flutes from his exotic personal collection. He backs them up with samplings of 4 French horns and 4 trombones as he explores the jazz, pop and traditional worlds you will find in our choice of material. Playing all these instruments in his personal, romantic style, Robert reaches our emotions with his warm sound.
