William Baines ‒ Tides

William Baines (1899 - 1922), Tides (1920) Performed by Eric Parkin 00:00 - No. 1. The Lone Wreck 02:52 - No. 2. Goodnight to Flamboro Tides are the finest of several sea pieces imbued with a desolate sense of atmosphere which found inspiration on and around Flamborough head. The Lone Wreck is constructed with utmost simplicity on great rolling arpeggios anchored almost throughout to a boomoing E flat pedal, over which floats a plaintive melody. In Goodnight to Flamboro the ceaseless murmur of the waves is conveyed in a semiquaver pedal figure breaking off before the last beat in each bar to leave a timeless bitonal shimmer. After generating a towering climax the harmonic structure contracts and darkens taking on the "lonely grey" charactristic of that eastward-facing coast towards dusk. The manuscript bears a quotation from Edward Dowden -- "Cry, Seal it is thy hour; thou art alone". RIP Hexameron: March 31, 2007 - February 29th, 2016
