How Did Rejuvenescence Come To Be?

What could be more ambitious than skipping an EP and going straight for a full album as your debut release?

How about making it a tightly integrated concept album?

How about doing it entirely by yourself… composing, recording, mixing, mastering, producing, publishing, and releasing it on your own label… all as a genuine solo project?

Well, that’s what Bryan Quinn inadvertently did!

But the inspiration for this project seemed to originate somewhere else entirely, and chose Bryan as the conduit…

Album Review: Rejuvenescence By Bryan Quinn – Reviewed by Steve Sheppard

One World Music Radio

“There is something about a flute release that creates and manifests many a time worn image, a memory so deep that it still lies hidden somewhere in the heart, thus is the power of the flute, here on Rejuvenescence, composer and performer Bryan Quinn on his debut album travels to musical locations, and explores the tonal narrative of many emotions feelings and moods that spawn from the vibrations created within this fascinating journey.

The opening of this riveting new creation is called Relationshipwrecked, a slow mournful repose gets our voyage underway, on a track that cries into the night for a love now lost and gone forever, only a flute can bring such poignancy.

This is a debut album and the artist has gone full out to explore the various highways and byways of his musical prowess, like the blues composition simply called Blue, where the flute mixes up with crying guitars and a slow seductive drum beat.

Here the listener can find something that will entice them, draw them in, perhaps the mystical energies of pieces like Rumination, a track created by thought for thinkers, or perhaps Introspection, where the thinker takes the thoughts and looks inwards, this track was of course released as a single earlier on this year and still to this day I think it is one of Quinn’s most masterful creations.

Deeper into the weave of the album we find a more upbeat reverie entitled Redemption, a freeing of ones shackles can be felt throughout this sparkling performance, one can literally feel the acceptance of happiness kick in in this fun manifestation.

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 is our last port of call and completes our long and deeply moving flute voyage of many mixed emotions with the artist; we have bounced off the bottom of our lake of feelings, drifted in the mid waters of life and sprung forth like a salmon from the cascades of rejuvenation. This new and debut album by Bryan Quinn concludes with the title track that many of us who have been wounded by life and love will resonate with, perhaps heal with and may one day  be able to move on with, a spectacular anthem like presentation on flute can be found here by the artist, one that rounds off the entire album with such style, intelligence and character.

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.”

Bryan Quinn’s Rejuvenescence is a well-crafted, thoughtful collection of music that takes listeners on a reflective and emotional journey. Each track feels like a page in a storybook, exploring diverse themes such as longing, renewal, solitude, and transformation.

The album’s heart and soul lie in Bryan’s outstanding flute performances. His growth as a musician and storyteller shines through on this record. He brings a sincere artistry that acts as a thread weaving these pieces together.

While the album isn’t flashy, it achieves something more important—it connects with the listener on a personal level. Bryan lets the music speak honestly, steering away from unnecessary embellishments to focus on delivering authentic emotion and atmosphere. His musical voice is clear, grounded, and meaningful, which makes Rejuvenescence a rewarding listen.

Track-by-Track Review:

  1. Relationshipwrecked
    With the interplay of two flutes, this opening piece sets the tone for storytelling through music. It beautifully portrays the evolution of a relationship, with the flutes in harmony at the start, only to drift apart as the piece progresses. The solo flute at the end captures the pain of separation with quiet but powerful simplicity.
  1. Longing
    A piano ballad gently ushers the listener into a soundscape of longing. The bass flute enriches the track with its soft, mournful tone, carrying a weighty sense of loneliness. Yet the higher flute introduces a distant glimmer of hope, creating a layered emotional experience that feels personal and welcoming.
  1. Blue
    This track explores a sense of adventure and discovery. The flute and guitar blend beautifully, moving through moments of doubt and perseverance. The piece simulates the winding path through adversity with poignant, reflective undertones. It’s introspective yet optimistic—a balancing act that Bryan handles skillfully.
  1. Solitude
    Arguably one of the strongest tracks on the album, “Solitude” is a showcase for Bryan’s ability to create profound mood and atmosphere. The low flute delivers a commanding yet tender performance, underscored by haunting minor chords. This piece invites you into stillness and self-reflection, while the higher flutes add a poetic touch. It feels deeply personal, and I’m particularly proud of the technical and expressive maturity Bryan demonstrates here.
  1. Rumination
    “Rumination” dives into darker themes, with moments of tension and unrest. The track alternates between a pulsing undercurrent of hope and bursts of intensity, capturing the turbulence of overthinking. The flute takes on a quieter, more reserved role here, allowing other elements to amplify the emotional energy.
  1. Optimism
    This track brightens the mood with its lighter, breezy vibe. The inclusion of mallets and layered instrumentation creates a refreshing sonic break from the intensity of earlier pieces. The song’s upbeat nature offers a sense of relief and renewal, fitting perfectly in the arc of the album.
  1. Introspection
    “Introspection” stands out as a nuanced and contemplative track. The vibrato and phrasing of the flute are executed with great care, and the swells add a dynamic depth that draws the listener in. This piece encapsulates the act of reflecting on the past while gathering insight for the future, making it a truly poignant moment on the album.
  1. Exploration
    There’s a playful yet cautious energy to this track, enhanced by the unique textures of the Suling and Bansuri flutes. It feels light and adventurous, like stepping out into the unknown with curiosity guiding the way. Bryan keeps the arrangement simple, allowing the charm of the instrumentation to take center stage.
  1. Brea(d)th
    This meditative track is a study in contrast. Singing bowls create an ethereal mood that gradually gives way to more complex and mysterious musical ideas. The bass Native flute acts as a steady guide, balancing the tension between stillness and motion. The eventual return to the singing bowls suggests harmony between inner restlessness and peace.
  1. Redemption
    A fun, nostalgic departure from the more introspective tracks, “Redemption” has an energetic, almost pop-like sensibility. With a touch of whimsy, it evokes carefree moments of joy, like a drive along a sunny coast. The uptempo groove makes this an easy favorite for a more casual listen.
  1. Reflection
    Pairing gentle piano with the bass flute, this track beautifully captures the meaning of its title. The interplay between the two creates a calm, rippling effect, much like gazing into a still pond. Bryan’s control and sensitivity on the flute elevate the piece, making it a peaceful and contemplative listen.
  1. Rejuvenescence
    The album’s title track closes the collection on a hopeful note. Its reflective nature shines through the piano’s guiding melody and the bass flute’s moving narration. This piece summarizes the album’s overarching themes beautifully, encouraging listeners to move forward with renewed spirit and purpose.

Final Thoughts:

Rejuvenescence is an album that speaks with quiet dignity. Bryan Quinn’s flute performance consistently delivers heartfelt emotion and technical precision, making the instrument a true highlight throughout. While some tracks may resonate more than others, the overall experience is cohesive and meaningful.

From the haunting depths of “Solitude” to the lighthearted whimsy of “Redemption,” the album offers a variety of moods and stories that invite listeners to reflect and connect. I’m proud to see how far he’s come, and I look forward to witnessing his continued growth as an artist. Rejuvenescence is a respectful nod to Bryan’s creative voice—a voice worth hearing.

The Rest Of The Rejuvenescence Origin Story?

I have already alluded to the fact that I went through a very difficult period of depression and anxiety. In the middle of this struggle, several very important people in my life decided to walk away. I was emotionally devastated. Things got really bad for a while. My incredible therapist and a few amazing friends helped me through. And then something incredible happened, and I know this is going to sound pretty out there, it get it…

But back in the spring, I was enjoying a quiet, solitary evening of TV time when I suddenly had a flood of inspiration. I grabbed the notepad and pen that I always lived by my chair and jotted down as fast as possible. This was the closest experience I have ever had to a stream of consciousness, a flow state, remote writing, whatever it was. Before I knew what was happening, I had nine items listed on this notepad. They were the completed concepts for 3/4 of this album. I had the instrumentation, the feeling, and the emotion I wanted each song to express, and in some cases, even the song titles I jotted down made it to the final product.

So I had this incredible flash of inspiration. Now what?

I had previously invested in some recording software and equipment with the hope of eventually recording some flute music. But in my entire life, I had never written anything, only playing the music put in front of me. And of course, I had no idea how to use any of this gear at this point.

Every night I would stare at that notepad and feel excited, but also defeated because I had no idea what to do next. Then about a week later, I woke up on a Saturday morning with a guitar melody stuck in my head. It took me a while to figure out it wasn’t a song I’d heard on the radio the day before, but something new and original, something mine. With not a clue what I was doing, I started recording it as a MIDI track using a keyboard. While I have a history of playing guitars, it has been years, and the learning curve would have been too steep. So I leaned on technology. (Let’s be clear! There isn’t any AI anywhere on this album. I recorded and programmed every single instrument part you hear accompanying the flutes.) By the end of that first day, I had the entire guitar track recorded. Then, the next day, I woke up with the flute melodies locked into my head, and without even knowing what I didn’t know, I recorded live flute.

Then, the real fun began. I never realized that writing and recording music are actually the easy parts. Mixing and Mastering are two completely different art forms that are far more complicated. I spent the next six to eight weeks in total immersion. Along the way I earned several certificates and an honorary music production degree from several online academies.

After this deep dive into music recording and production, I reopened this first track and started applying what I had learned. Then I shared it with a few friends, peers, and mentors, and the response was the same. They all said I had to release this. So Solitude, my debut single, which went on to win awards and as of this writing, has spent four months on the Top 100 Single Chart from One World Music Radio, was in fact, the first thing I had ever composed in my entire life!

What followed over the next several months was the journey to complete this project.

When it was all said and done, those original 9 ideas that had come to me were now full songs. And three more had joined them, each one conveying a different part of my experience.

It is a congruent story that I believe comes through in the songs. I have subtitled the album “A Story of Loss, Healing, and Growth… Told Through Contemporary Music Featuring World Flutes.”

To really get the full effect, I hope you will read along with the very personal liner notes I wrote, which offer a deeper insight into each composition. And for my flute nerd friends, I also share the specs on each flute I used. Unfortunately, the streaming services don’t allow the inclusion of notes or documents. But if you purchase the physical or digital download directly from me you will get the full liner notes, giving you the entire story of Rejuvenescence.

And for the record, I had another episode of streaming consciousness or flow state or whatever when it came time to write these liner notes. I sat at the computer and before I knew it about 90 minutes had passed and I had several pages of text typed. Some edits were made, but what I wrote during that “episode” is essentially what made it to the final release.
