A specially commissioned soundscape for art installation Seven Waves by Erland Brown and Dave Jackson. Seven movements, written for uilleann pipes and two fiddles, reflecting the sequence of events in the St. Magnus saga and strongly influenced by the writings of George Mackay Brown’s ’Tryst on Egilsay’ whose poems are beautifully provided in the detailed 28 page booklet accompanying the CD.
