Composed by James E. Goodwin. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 238 pages. James Goodwin #5996663. Published by James Goodwin (A0.926712).Scenes from the Sea is a suite in five movements for full orchestra, each of which lasts approximately three minutes, except for the last movement which lasts five minutes. Movement One, entitled "Schools of Fish," is a brisk opener that symbolizes the sea as a whole, teeming with life. Movement Two is called "Shipwrecks." The music is contemplative and represents the multitude of ships that rest at the bottom of the sea, many of which are the graves of brave sailors. Movement Three is a march called "Fighting Crabs," and is about two crabs who fight to the death for food. In Movement Four, "The Abyss," the listener descends to the depths, whereupon he/she finds a peaceful rest. The last movement, "A Squall," begins calmly, but a foreboding storm in the distance threatens to takes away the calm. The Navy Hymn, "Eternal Father, Strong to Save," is heard just before the storm strikes. Finally, the calmness returns and the piece ends triumphantly. Scores and parts are included for full orchestra, including piano. Full program notes are available from the composer.
