About the Album

This track is inspired by the tune URSULA by English composer and pianist Michael Garrick. It is supposed to evoke a time and place far from now where Aphrodite weeps for her lost lover, a human being who could not face the transformation to god-like status to be with her. Personnel: Nick Wilkinson (alto & soprano saxes), Ben NcDonnell (electric guitar), Vicky Tilson (double bass & compositions), and Saul Holding (drums).
