Basquiat Strings United Kingdom
Biography
Basquiat Strings are a five piece string group with their own repertoire of originals (composed by cellist Ben Davis) and arrangements. Ben finds inspiration from the raucous, driving Hungarian string groups of Transylvania, the luxuriously rich Brahms sextets and the unruly compositions and workshop arrangements of Charles Mingus. Well, all that and people asking him to fix strings for their sessions... The players have all trained classically yet are "naturally bilingual.
