Reviews of Giantess:“Jennie Oh Brown, Carter Pann & Friends: “Giantess” (Innova). Flutist Brown conceived this album as a tribute to her grandmothers, who must have been fearless souls, judging by the daring character of the music Brown, pianist Pann and others have recorded here. From Shulamit Ran’s dramatic “Birds of Paradise” to Pann’s profoundly lyrical “Melodies for Robert,” from Augusta Read Thomas’ serene “Please for Peace” to Pann’s epic “Giantess,” the album combines first-rate composition with startlingly strong performances.” Howard Reich, Best Classical Albums of 2019, Chicago Tribune, December 2019“The irrepressibly creative flutist and new-music advocate celebrates the release of her new album, “Giantess,” which features music of Shulamit Ran, Carter Pann, Augusta Read Thomas and others. All of which is designed to express \'profoundly human, soul-filled stories\'.” Howard Reich, Chicago Tribune, November 8, 2019“The tone Brown draws from her flute is meltingly beautiful—rounded, seamless through all registers, robust. ”Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Classical Review, November of many reviews of Looking Back: Flute Music of Joseph Schwantner:“As evidenced by this album, Jennie Oh Brown really understands Schwantner’s compositional intent, and her playing reflects the beauty, intensity, rawness, and virtuosity his music requires. She excels in changing characters rapidly, and her beautiful, expressive sound is perfectly suited to Schwantner’s emotional, lyrical, and acrobatic music.”-Jennifer Slaughter, National Flute Association Flutist Quarterly, Fall - The Heare Ensemble\'s debut album - Reviews: performances are flawless, and the recording quality excellent; Vox Balaenae is a timeless masterpiece.” Max Christie, TheWholeNote.com, May 5, 2020 (Vox Innova 040)
