'Sailboats'




Category: Miscellaneous | Posted: Fri Dec 14, 2007 11:25 am

Here's another short composition I did a short while ago, that some of you might want to hear.

I live close to where the two river estuaries Taw and Torridge meet by the sea. Instow and Appledore are perched on the edges opposite each other, where the rivers join, and is a favourite place for yachting - not massive luxury craft, just smaller conventional one or two person boats.



Almost all the way up to Bideford, the estuary is home to moored craft, and at high tide some of them hoist sails and start out to sea, bobbing along, each following the one in front. Once in open water they do a slow dance, zigzagging across the bay.
That's the scene I've tried to capture in this piece of music I've called simply 'Sailboats'.
