from Compositions by Nuala Kennedy
This piece was composed for the thematic Shorelines record which I recorded with Tara Breen and Tony Byrne. The first tune is intended to represent the challenging seaborne voyage of the female adventurer as she first sets sail… with the reel ‘Flow’, I saw the heroine with her sails unfurled- the wind at her back as things take a turn for the better!
