Like St Pauls in London during WW2, St Sophia stands as a symbol of hope in Kyiv, giving strength and courage to the brave defenders of Ukraine. Please let there be peace this Easter.

The Battle of Falkirk (22 Jul 1298) came up on my calendar a few weeks ago and I was inspired to create this. Whilst not Scottish by birth, I have served with a Scottish regiment and feel a strong kinship to them. The William Wallace monument (pictured) commemorates the Battle of Sterling 1297, which the Scots won. The 2 pipers (standard and uilleann)play from either side of the battle field, a fiddle bridge gives them a break then both pipers together play out the finale. Orchestral fills by Spitfire Labs and Vital.

The track was run through ValhallaSupermassive, and then I reversed the results.

La Cathédrale Arrière

Moog Grandmother through 2 series instances of ValhallaSupermassive, running the Triangulum mode. The first Supermassive is providing a long reverb, while the second is being used for a 4 bar looper.
