| Programme Note | Hebridean Sunset Rag, arrangement for Flute and Guitar. I have a caravan in a wonderful spot on the west coast of Scotland, with a nearby beach and fantastic views of the Isles. It is a favourite retreat of mine, and I particularly like to go there with other musicians in the summer, to jam and sing songs on the beach, as the sun sets behind the dark silhouettes of Eigg and Rhum. This little piece is a flight of fancy, in which Scott Joplin, Stephane Grappelli and Eddie Cochran come to stay at my caravan and join our jam session on the beach. Perhaps Nicolo Paganini is there too. Maybe it sounds a bit like this… © Julian Wagstaff, 2006 |
