Music

Crested Hens

This piece was inspired by my time growing up in Littlehampton, West Sussex, where the River Arun flows out from the harbour. As a boy I used to spend a lot of time walking along the Arun in the town, standing on the old iron swing-bridge, watching the fast flowing river sweep out to sea. Walking along the banks at night I remember hearing the rigging on masts clanking a rhythm in the wind, which is recaptured on this track. 

I play the tune on a Dolmetsch descant recorder, Chieftain tin whistle and a Castagnari Tommy melodeon.
