Duck Creek Covid Commission: Randy Brecker, trumpet & Ada Rovatti, saxophone

1:40 There’s a Mingus Amoung Us by Randy Brecker
6:22 The Other Side of the Coin by Ada Rovatti
”Ada and Randy‘s playing and interpretation almost incur a sixth sense, due to their closeness and compatibility delivering a fresh, unconventional and unique sound, harmonically and rhythmically challenging, but still very approachable without ever being clichéd.” - Jazz Times
Italian native Ada Rovatti started playing saxophone in high school after years of classical piano training. After winning a scholarship from Berklee College of Music in Italy she divided herself between Boston where she studied with Joe Viola, George Garzone and Italy where she was working in Big Bands with guest artists such as: Phil Woods, Lee Konitz, Bob Mintzer, Randy Brecker.
Jazz trumpeter and composer Randy Brecker has helped shape the sound of jazz, R&B and rock for more than four decades. His trumpet and flugelhorn performances have graced hundreds of albums by a wide range of artists from James Taylor, Bruce Springsteen and Parliament/Funkadelic to Frank Sinatra, Steely Dan, Jaco Pastorius and Frank Zappa.
This program was organized by the Arts Center at Duck Creek and sponsored by The Willem de Kooning Foundation (www.dekooning.org)
