Pianist Peter Waters and his ensemble, the Treya Quartet, garnered widespread praise for their performance of exquisitely sensitive jazz arrangements of songs by Gabriel Faure (1845-1924). This beautifully-shot studio recording of the Quartet playing some of their arrangements also features internationally-acclaimed soprano Barbara Hendricks singing original versions. The performances are punctuated by Waters and Hendricks considering Faure's music and its compatibility with jazz.
