about

Divergence was written by Wil Swindler in 2000 while he was attending the Henry Mancini Institute. Swindler, an accomplished saxophonist, evokes the emotion and slow lyricism of Barber’s Adagio for Strings while incorporating his own harmonic language. Strong and colorful individual lines weave their threads among the rest, creating a rich pattern of sound.

Divergence became the title track of the album when we realized how closely the piece mirrored Sphere’s own artistic goals. The individual musical lines are powerful on their own, but mixed together become something greater. The piece honors tradition, but the twists of the composition turn away from expectation. The language is classical, but jazz elements blend seamlessly into it. While All the Rowboats represents Sphere’s belief about art, Divergence represents who we are.
