The Ghost Ship

Digital Sheet Music

By Carl Tausig

Item Number: A0.1004528

The Ghost Ship was inspired by a poem written by German poet Moritz von Strachwitz(who like Tausig had a short life as he died in 1847 at the age of 25). The poem is about an encounter in a stormy North Sea between two ships, one with a human crew fighting to survive against a ghost ship of Vikings on another.  Tausig also wrote a version for orchestra, but it is lost along with his other orchestral works. This is a transcription I've made for Double Bass.
