Andrea Brachfeld has been praised by many critics, and Downbeat called her “one of the finest jazz flutists around.” The concert was a pleasing mix of standards and originals, smoking hot tempos and slower, meditative tempos, and above all, the astonishing virtuosity of Brachfeld and her band members. Brachfeld’s slim fingers dancing over the instrument create melodies that soar and dive, spin and spiral, whisper and flutter; melodies that are inventive, often surprising, always expressive. As bandleader, she amply demonstrated that she knows her own mind.
“You’re to be commended for playing very cleanly those unusual melodies…(on Evolution)“ - Hubert Laws
“When I listen to the gorgeous, rich sound of flutist Andrea Brachfeld, I question why she is not constantly headlining at the world’s top jazz spots.” ~ Don Jay Smith, May 2022, hothousejazz.com
“There is nothing at which she does not excel, regardless of mood or tempo." ~ Jack Bowers, June 2022, allaboutjazz.com
“… Her marvelous tone and technique are astonishing… She is definitely among those who deserves recognition not only among her peers, but the public in general.” - Hubert Laws
