Angharad Davies & John Butcher
Promoting their album ‘Two Seasonss’ released earlier this year…

“Violin and saxophone duets emerge from small cracks in the surface of the earth on Two Seasons, Angharad Davies and John Butcher entwining two quite different sonic fields with methodic precision.
There’s something organic about their tonal excursions, fleeting moments captured and flickering spectacles drawn out into
breath and fracture. Extended techniques hang in dead air, wondering if they should fall apart, each musician listening so intently that silence becomes as vital as sound.
The duo creates intimate sonic exchanges where a single note or gesture can redirect an entire passage, a testament to years of crossing paths and understanding each other’s musical language.” – Ben Rose from Foxy Digitalis
Seth Bennett (stepping in for Johannes Elnan who cancelled their tour)
