His current projects include the critically acclaimed ‘Stravinsky Duo’ - a piano and drums collaboration with Dylan Howe exploring in jazz the themes of The Rite of Spring and The Firebird. His quartet consists of Pete Ibbetson on drums, Henrik Jenson on double bass and Russle van den Burg on saxophone. The quartet will be playing Butterworth originals as well as their take on some of the jazz standards.
