Jez Nelson presents a concert by Richard Barrett and fORCH, recorded at the 2009 Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival. Based on the electro-acoustic duo of Richard Barrett and Paul Obermayer, the ensemble also features two vocalists and four instrumentalists who specialize in improvised and experimental music, including John Butcher, Phil Minton and Rhodri Davies.

fORCH combines completely free improvisation with composed frameworks, by Richard Barrett, within which the ensemble is able to improvise freely.
