About the Album

This is the 2nd movement from Ian Wilson's ambitious large-scale 'Double Trio' for three jazz and three classical musicians. Based on an interview the composer made with a stonemason in south Dublin, the track uses rhythms and melodic contours from certain phrases spoken by the interviewee as the basis of the musical argument. It's also a colourful and affectionate portrait of the man and the area.
