PRESS RELEASE
After being proclaimed Brooklyn's Cultural Ambassadors, and having established itself among the leaders in the field of arts education, The Brooklyn Repertory Ensemble reaffirms its status as one of the great performing aggregations with this residency at The Paul Robeson Theatre.
"The Brooklyn Repertory Ensemble continues its journey to make the world safe for bebop and to draw attention to the mother borough. May God speed!" - Phil Schaap, Jazz@Lincoln Center
"Great creative music by an outstanding aggregation. Very refreshing..." - Michael "Mr. Jazz" Gourrier, WRIR-FM, Richmond, VA
"It is a wonderful CD (Pragmatic Optimism) with loads of feeling and directions. This is certainly some fine jazz from a large group with a great mission." - Tom Morgan WWOZ-FM, New Orleans, LA
"This orchestral jazz CD (Pragmatic Optimism) is an exceptionally interesting fusion of smooth vocals, blazing brass, scintillating guitar, and some very rare instruments, such as Mellophone and Euphonium. Wade Barnes, Producer, of Brooklyn Four Plus One, Inc., has composed half of the tracks, with other composers, such as Bob Dylan and Oliver Nelson, represented as well.
