Starting life as a solo piano composition by Will, for a story book many years ago, it has since grown both in the studio and on the road, into a suite both delicate and dynamic, translating Wilde's story of love and sacrifice. The Quartet have played together for many years in various guises and their ease together allows the melodies to be starting points for freewheeling improvisations
"Words and music dovetailing in sympathetic symmetry...Butterworth's suite captures some of the poetry, pronounced rhythmic cadences and vivid colours of Wilde's text" - Ian Patterson, All About Jazz review of Belfast concert
Personnel: Will Butterworth (piano), Seb Pipe (alto saxophone, Nick Pini (bass), Pete Ibbetson (drums)
