about

Total Playing Time - 60:36

People have always been fascinated by the sea, and particularly so in ancient times, when it brought us into contact with new civilisations and cultures. Even today, it still holds mysteries, and its depths hide a multitude of secrets.

Around the world there are many legends of cities lost 'Beneath the Waves'. One recurring theme is that the tolling of bells can sometimes be heard from the deep. Looming out of the mist, 'Islands' were often uncharted and their occupants a source of fascination. Sadly, many ships foundered on submerged rocks and reefs, and mariners found themselves cast upon 'Distant Shores', with little idea what exotic perils were in store for them.

However, the many dangers didn't stop others embarking on further journeys into the unknown - the start of the 'Voyage' was always a time of brave dreams and grand visions, whatever lay in store. Once at sea, the 'Wind and the Stars' were both vital, since sail power and navigation depended on them. However, even at times of calm, the lure of 'Ancient Seas' often meant journeys into the unknown, full of unknown perils from the deep.
