Discography
"Finding horn players who specialize on baritone sax is rare indeed! That’s why I was so delighted to hear Charles Evans. He’s really got that baritone under control — great stuff! Give this young man’s music a listen — you’ll be hearing more of him on the big horn!"
~ John Surman (baritone saxophone great)
Listen to tracks from Charles Evans and his quartet The Language Of, as well as tracks from his upcoming solo baritone saxophone CD The King of All Instruments, and/or his duo tracks with pianist Neil Shah!
Ballads
"Saxophonist Charles Evans creates lush and dark moods, with original compositions and classic jazz ballads. The album features Charles in duet with long-time partner, Philadelphia-based guitarist Erik Dutko, and with a classic rhythm section featuring Neil Shah on piano, Moppa Elliott on bass, and Eli Hludzik on drums. Ballads, recorded in Spring 2004, is a landmark achievement in baritone saxophone elegance."

It Needs It
". . . everything is secondary to the power of the music encased within the disc. To adequately describe it one would have to invent some new adjectives."

No Relation
With the culmination of this second CD, The Language Of has found a clear direction to express the inspiration they draw from the entire jazz lineage. The Evans Brothers aren't related biologically, politically, and many times not musically, but here they have succeeded in combining stylistically inconsistent techniques consistently.
