Abstract

Originally composed by Richard Fay in 2020, this (composition-as-output) work was recorded as part of the mid-length CD Magu Hiraeth (2023).

Sleeve Note
West End Shore is a pebbled beach that sits beneath the quarry-carved most northerly peak in the mountain group Yr Eifl. It's a beach rarely visited except by those in the nearby village of Trefor, and yet it is a place where glorious sunsets over the water to Ynys Môn are common, as are sightings of dolphins and seals. And when the evening light is right, distant across the Irish sea, the Wicklow mountains haunt the horizon. It can be a peaceful place - the mood captured, I hope, in this piece - but also a wild one when the storms lash in off the sea and where, on occasion, we have quite literally been blown off our feet.
