New review on Jazztrail.net

Written By André Carvalho

Deeply grateful to JazzTrail for hearing the emotions woven into Of Fragility and Impermanence.
This work is born from moments of fragility, of impermanence, and of quiet reflection — and it feels profoundly moving to see that resonance reflected back through attentive listening.

“Flawlessly arranged, “Of Fragility and Impermanence” is emotive and layered without becoming ponderous. The ensemble plays as a true collective, bringing Carvalho’s vision to life with honesty, musical depth, and imagination. It is an album to be discovered slowly, preferably in the quiet of the night.”

“Portuguese bassist and composer André Carvalho releases “Of Fragility and Impermanence”, a collection of 12 tracks that firmly situates itself on the left side of the jazz spectrum.”
