“Nicely done my friend! This is so well put together. I can feel that you poured your heart and soul into every grain of sand… every breath.

Thank you for allowing me a sneak peek. Your growth as a flute player and storyteller shine through on this.

You connect with the listener on a personal level, inviting them to connect and reflect”

Rejuvenescence by Bryan Quinn has to be one of the most inspiring debut releases of 2024; this is a fine place with which to start a musical expedition, and above all Quinn has used music as a cathartic tour of emotional healing, and as music is probably the only medicine that ever works without side effects, and is the ultimate language of pure truth, his creation of this his debut album is a master stoke that needs to be both respected and applauded, and with that in mind I predict a huge hit for Rejuvenescence by Bryan Quinn.

The penultimate offering from the album would be one of my personal favourites and called Reflection, perhaps because I have personally done a heck of a lot of it over the passing years. Moreover it was the sensitive performance by Quinn that made this piece the highlight of the album for me, the perceptive and caring presentation is one of the finest I have heard from a flute performer for years.

“Rejuvenescence represents a return to Bryan’s musical roots. The creation of this collection chronicled and guided Bryan through a period of great personal adversity.

Each piece is uniquely crafted to express a different phase of his journey – from melancholy to joy- contemplation to celebration – and ultimately to a place of renewal.

The album as a whole is a rich tapestry of emotions and blending of sounds exploring how one can rebuild and rise up after devastation. This musical sojourn is beautifully crafted, surprising at times, and delightful to experience.”

“My overall impression is that you did a very good job conveying your feelings. I got it EVERY time, every song. I’m really impressed with your ability to add instrumentation to your own tracks. Being able to be original in this way allows you to really sculpt the sound of each track to be more authentic to your feelings. Bravo!

I also applaud that each track has it’s own sound and expression. None of them sound even remotely alike. Going from Blue to Solitude was a big jump. Also, big jump from Brea(d)th to Redemption. You made your point.

I would like to congratulate you on such a successful endeavor as your first album! It’s a very emotional roller coaster and much insight on your inner self. You obviously put a lot of your soul and sweat equity into this! Congratulations, Bryan! Great job!”

“Overall, I found Rejuvenescence to be a stellar debut album, and I look forward to listening to your future recordings. I am very impressed with your playing technique and the subtle use of ornamentation. Your vibrato control is exceptional! I am also impressed with your production, mixing and mastering skills. The guitar and drum sounds you created were wonderful and realistic. (Wish I could get mine that good.)

In fact, I hope we get to collaborate on a tune or two in the future.

You should be extremely proud of how this album came out. If it were mine, I certainly would be.”

“Wow. I listened to the whole CD in one sitting while reading your insert notes. Such a remarkable journey!

I really thought your paragraph for each song was really a great compass. That’s why I love CDs because you can give the listener so much more to orient with the music and connect with the musician.

I especially loved Reflection and the interplay with the piano and the flute. So beautiful. A really nice mix of styles and contemporary aspects make this an interesting experience. Well done and I am honored to know you”

“I had a chance to listen to the album! I am blown away. I can’t even choose a favorite. There is so much depth behind every one. I am so proud of you for all the work you put into this, and if I didn’t know you, I would have no idea this was your first album. The quality sounds like someone who has been a professional musician for a very long time!

And I LOVE the album artwork and liner notes!  They look so professional and artistic. It definitely embodies the vibe of your music. Great work! I wish more musicians would be as vulnerable with where the music came from and their stories. What you wrote for each one was beautiful.  It’s so interesting how many words can subconsciously be sitting behind music. You articulated each of those points extremely well. Great work! I’m so proud of you!”
