CHRIS BURN'S ENSEMBLE on Midnight Oil

Following on from Nick’s posting of the Burn/Butcher album Fonetiks, I dug out this old radio broadcast of Chris Burn’s Ensemble.  I’ve left in all the between-track chat not only because it’s interesting but because it is a joy to hear such well-spoken voices.
Some Ensemble recordings are still available through John Butcher’s website.

CHRIS BURN, piano

JOHN BUTCHER, sop and tenor sax

JIM DENLEY, flute

STEVIE WISHART, violin, hurdy-gurdy

PHIL DURRANT, violin

MARCIO MATTOS, cello, bass

JOHN RUSSELL, guitar

MATT HUTCHINSON, synth, electronics
