Andy Sheppard QUARTETS is a vehicle for Sheppard to reflect on past, present, and future compositional endeavours. It is an homage to one's own identity through time, embracing a block universe philosophy, in which all musical works from different eras coexist at once on the stage at a given time.Bringing back past compositions to the forefront of his shows, without the fear of sabotaging his renowned innovative spirit, he allows the present moment to reshape its version of music-making by freely exploring new possibilities of improvisation, a constant shuffling of an evolving narrative with unexpected revelations.
The new compositions, for this saxophone and guitar-led band, derive from Andy’s explorations of individuality and his long love relationship with the guitar. In Sheppard’s own words, when describing this new musical ensemble and its concept, "It’s not about a nostalgia kind of thing, we will be playing a wide range of music that has come out of me over the last 20, 30 years... However, it's a movable feast, with stuff I'm playing and working on at the moment and tunes I have re-arranged especially for Quartets....This band will be continually developing, whilst at the same time digging into my own musical story."
