Sea Fever by John Ireland Medium Voice - Sheet Music
By John IrelandThis song fittingly captures the essence of "Sea Fever." To begin with, in the song, a woman speaks vividly of nature and describes how her life breaks with the tide. She expresses a great desire and need to feel the ocean's calming and yet ominous and ever-changing ways. She says, "I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life." The vocal range is from D4 to F5. The voice part is predominently in triplet figures representing the ever-changing tide while the piano is in blocked chords characterizing the calm of the sea. In this way, the rhythmic and lyrical aspects combined create an ultimate feeling of "Sea Fever."
