Description

Multi-level strings with percussion. Inspired by the poem “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” by Samuel Colleridge, this is a massive festival piece that can be performed by players at all levels.  Written for eight string orchestras and percussion, the piece opens with a whitewash of sound that steers towards a plaintive melody.  In turn this leads to a robust jig-like section which evokes the surge and power of the sea. Only orchestra “A” is required as percussion and the other seven orchestras are optional.
