The lineup of Feartet changes from project to project. Incidentally, the name of the group is easier to explain than you might think: Fields unceremoniously derived it from the German word "vier", i.e., reinterpreted it on the basis of phonetics.

This time Fields opted for a Western guitar with steel strings. "The tones are integrated, but it sounds more like guitar plus string trio in the sense of classical piano trios." The process of "re-imagination" is complex. Scott Fields chose fragments of the original composition such as certain phrases that are also oriented toward individual harmonic developments, but he also took the liberty of modifying the material in different ways and structuring it accordin.......
