"Bitter Ending is a recording of a work for eight voices composed by Andre Hodeir as commissioned by Ward Swingle. The work is performed by the Swingle Singers with a jazz quintet. This was the last work by Hodeir and is inspired by James Joyce's Finnegans Wake"

"Bitter Ending sounds very composed and even ambitious, in a style straddling contemporary music and free jazz"
