about

JENNIFER ALLUM:  violin
JOHN BUTCHER:  saxophones
UTE KANNGIESSER:  cello
EDDIE PRÉVOST:  percussion

This recording marks the second meeting of this quartet. The occasion was an afternoon session organised for inclusion in Stewart Morgan’s film “Eddie Prévost’s Blood”. A special location had been chosen - the large assembly hall of Prévost’s old senior school, Addey & Stanhope in Deptford, London, where he enrolled in the mid 1950s. Coincidentally, a dozen years later John Butcher began school a few miles further up the Thames in Bermondsey, the neighbourhood of Eddie’s childhood home. Ute Kanngiesser and Jennifer Allum met each other and Eddie when, over a decade ago, they became regular attendees of his long-running weekly music workshop in Southwark.
