I get a similar feeling from Marty Krystall's "Davy the Baby" from the album Seeing Unknown Colours. The quartet is bursting with excitement. Even when listening at near-concert levels, trumpet and saxophone never tip towards the unpleasant. Quite the contrary: This spectacle becomes a highly emotional experience. The rumbling bass drum and the sonorous double bass form a solid foundation and sufficient counterbalance to the glistening brass. At such a volume you can't enjoy this track with just any converter or CD player. The Brooklyn doesn't only shine when listening to Jazz or similar. On the fourth movement of the Symphonie Fantastique in the reference recording by the Utah Symphony Orchestra directed by Varujan Kojian, its lively and inspiring style of playing, its wide and airy reproduction, and its unbelievable capabilities in the lowest register are very convincing. Terrific!
