violin playing is an absolute force of nature; at times like a dervish that seems to sweep straight from her heart and out in to the universe, unencumbered by structure or regime, just a natural flow like a river that heads onward.
-Mr.Olivetti Freq
‘Brackenbury, on violin and viola, provides a challenging and refreshing freedom to the jazz violin…At times, (her) playing is reminiscent of Ornette Colemans….(she) has developed her own voice in jazz…’ ~Jazz Times
‘… gorgeous lyricism, delicacy, surging power and bow-digging wildness
