The striking thing about dreaming these pieces is that Forties when 4 or 5 occasionally even Dogger or Fisher or the German Bight needs occasionally to rest, maybe in Humber, later. there are other accumulations and if you look at the city she conquered you will only see New York lying at her feet.

Malin increasing later. east Hebrides becomes a dead reckoning, plots on the last fix or position; speeds through water along the compass course and tone? can be made to grow from musical content, decided by and during performance by the performer. long notes? these, free the ear. added must not be distracting Fair Isle, Faeroes westerly veering northerly 5 sometimes 6 becoming variable 3, 4, 2, 1, 0 rain. then showers. Moderate. not a feast of fools and not a description. we want to create a fool’s paradise? no. no. no fixed abode. only arts. mysteries. free the ear to concentrate on the bass. the contrapuntal balance? the french violin clef? does not transpose.
