That's the name of a collaboration between the Delta Saxophone Quartet and pianist and composer
Gwilym Simcock. Simcock, who played with Bill Bruford's Earthworks early on in his career, has drawn upon the music of King Crimson for inspiration. The work receives its world premier in Milan at the end of next month with further dates in the UK in 2015. You can
find out more details here. This isn't the first time the Delta Saxophone Quartet have adapted rock music. You can read my take on their arrangements of music by Soft Machine over
on the blog.
