     The Rosemary Songbook celebrates the 25 year marriage of John
     and Rosemary Coldwell, and Hornweb wish to thank John Coldwell
     whose very generous financial support has funded this release
     in full.

     Although not initially conceived as a Hornweb project, as soon
     as the trio had begun work on this CD the nature of the music
     implied such a strong continuity from the earlier group that
     we decided that the "brand name" should live once again.

     Hornweb was, of course, initially a saxophone quartet and
     latterly a quintet including trumpet or trombone, while this
     new version of the group is a multi-instrumental trio. But the
     nature of the music itself - jazz based, horn led, and in the
     AACM tradition - clearly indicates a line of continuity
     directly from the old group.

     In the intervening 12 years Hornweb prime movers Archer and
     Saw have switched their primary instruments from saxophones to
     electronics and brass respectively. Collins rehearsed with a
     large group version of Hornweb in the late 1980s which never
     actually performed, and of course has been a long time
     associate of the other two. He too has switched from woodwind
     to vibraphone and percussion over the last period.

     This new recording comprises a series of short tracks -
     nothing longer than 3 minutes - in which percussion and
     electronics create structures for composed and improvised horn
     parts. The group's intention is to play this material live
     following completion of the CD.
