Dave Brubeck writes about The Herskowitz Trio's debut CD “Forget Me Not - Herskowitz Rozenblatt Project”
“When I got to track 9, what you had going on in ‘Brazil’ I found almost impossible to analyze so much was going on. I couldn’t understand what percussion instruments could damn near play the melody. Whoever the percussionist is, he also is a “monster.’”

Dwight Rhoden's 'OTHELLO' with music composed by David Rozenblatt:
THE CHARLOTTE OBSERVER
"There is electric energy from the start as the pulsing original score, by David Rozenblatt, communicates the essence of a rock concert and its afterparties....“Othello” has impeccable dancing, innovative music and eye-popping costumes. Beware the green-eyed monster, but go see its effects in this fiery and vibrant production"

"The work is set to a highly textured commissioned score by composer David Rozenblatt, with whom Rhoden has worked before. If it must be categorized, you could call it jazz, but it contains all the peculiar variety and rich strangeness of music in a dream... This music feels inseparable from the hard-edged, super-stylish sets and lighting by Michael Korsch and the brilliant, glittering, barely-there costuming by Christine Darch. Visually and aurally, this is a world complete" |
