Jazz Times CD Review, September 2007"There's an energetic creative force on the horizon named Ayn Inserto, and based on this debut album, she's Maria Schneider on steroids. Boston-based Inserto, an assistant professor at Berklee, arranged all nine tracks and composed six. George Garzone, who is a guest tenorist, wrote the remaining three. The other guest soloist is trombonist Bob Brookmeyer, who happens to be Inserto's mentor. That connection alone gives credence to the album. What you'll hear may be confusing. In Inserto's contemporary mindset, there seems little need for bar lines or, in many instances, tonal centers. Her strength is in creating dense colors and textures, as on 'Clairvoyance.' Sticking with a conventional, 17-piece band, she devises huge, avant-garde canvases filled with clusters (she loves minor seconds). Brookmeyer is laid-back, never deviating from his sophisticated tones, creating a fascinating contrast to Inserto's dissonant backing, particularly on 'Shadow Dancing. ' Garzone, on the other hand, tends to become as anarchic as the band, as on 'Hey, Open Up. ' Pianist Kyle Aho takes a very poetic solo on 'Early Sunday Morning,' and there is outstanding rhythmic support from bassist Jeremy Allen and drummer Richie Barshay on 'Lazy Saturday Afternoon. '" - Harvey Siders"Ayn Inserto is a young, beautiful and very talented composer who has just made a dramatic entrance into the world of big band jazz, offering a new voice on this debut album. Her music is new and unconventional, striking a different chord than what one usually expects from a big band project. Inserto assembled her sixteen-piece Boston-based orchestra with some of the best local talent. A student of legendary trombonist Bob Brookmeyer, who likens Inserto to Maria Schneider, she recorded this album with her mentor and reed man George Garzone as special guests. Except for three tracks penned by Garzone, the balance consists of original compositions and arrangements provided by the leader. What is clearly evident here, right from the opening 'The Mingus That I Knew,' is that you will not be treated to a typical big band sound. The charts are sophisticated, ...

I play flutes, and don't play sax or other horns. This means that the flute is my main means of expression. Some people who play these other instruments use the flute for the quiet or cool side of their playing. I express the whole range of emotion and mood with flutes. That means that sometimes my music is harsh and hard, other times quiet, serene. Sometimes it's hot, sometimes cool. Almost always, though, it is with intensity. Using different flutes and recorders, I hope to add some subtlety to my music, and I hope those of you who listen to it will let yourselves get lost in the possibilities.My family is a musical one. My parents were choral singers and my sisters play music. I began playing the flute in grade four in the Royal Oak, Michigan, Public Schools. I played in school bands and, in high school ...
