Recorded live as part of the Melbourne International Jazz Festival in June 2018, 'Vesper' is guitarist/composer Kim Myhr's collaboration with the world-renowned Australian Art Orchestra, led by Peter Knight.

A long-form, immersive work consisting of three movements that add up to a combined running time of just under one hour, it further demonstrates Myhr's masterly command of complex musical resources and extended duration.

'Vesper' - which means "evening" in classical Latin - also reunites Myhr with drummer and percussionist Tony Buck, of Australia's legendary improv trio The Necks.

Buck was one of the three guest drummers featured on Myhr's acclaimed Hubro recording 'You | me', shortlisted for the 2018 Nordic Music Prize alongside Bjork and Susanne Sundfor.
