Five Voyages (single)
Kate Westbrook - voice
Mike Westbrook - piano
Composition for voice and piano, commissioned by Peninsular Arts as Part of a series commemorating the 150th Anniversary of the foundation of Plymouth University as a School of Navigation. Performed by Kate and Mike Westbrook. Later Included in the repertoire of The Westbrook Trio.
"To mark the origins of Plymouth University as a School of Navigation, we made the starting point for our song a sea crossing. The simple words take the form of five prayers, which move from the origins of life itself to a death at sea. Cycles, as of tides, waves and weather, are embedded in the sequence of piano chords".
