The fine double bass-led piano trio Phronesis, with their latest album Life to Everything (Edition) released in April, made one of the most definitive live albums of recent years.

They continue their already extensive touring programme this year with English and Welsh dates beginning at the Watermill, Dorking on 13 November, continuing at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, Cardiff (14 Nov), hitting the Arena theatre, Wolverhampton on the 15th.
