O’s Notes: Percussionist, composer and band leader Julian Gerstin is continually evolving as a student and teacher in the world of jazz. His influences are from African/Diasporic countries, and the popular music in the Caribbean and Mexico and Brazil. Julian plays more percussive instruments than we can name. He’s accompanied by Anna Patton playing clarinet on “Corculum Cardissa” and Steve Rice playing marimba on “Purpura”, “Grimpotheusis” and “Argonauta argo”. There’s an exotic, adventurous feel over sixteen selections.
