The Broken Reed Saxophone Quartet with Kristin Slipp: Songs of Love and  Passion

Reeds and voice create artsy moods as the Broken Reed Saxophone Quartet teams up with vocalist Kristin Slipp for a tad of swing and a jot of indie bohemia. Jenny Hill/ss, Charley Gerard/as, Jacob Teichroew/ts and Dimitri Moderbacher/bari create rich textures on their one on a stately and pretty “Love And Then It’s Gone” and an Old World “La Lloraona” with Teichroew giving some warm tones McCoy Tyner’s “Passion + Dance.” With Slipp on vocals, the team gets bluesy on the artsy “The Fear In Your Eyes” and sways to an R&B ish “Blutebone Song” and luminous “Real.” Hill steps out in the front harmonies with Slipp on “I’m In Love” while Slipp growls out “I Made A Mistake.” Part Ellingtonian sax section, part café’ bohemia.
