Abstract
I recall an idyllic day spent by the Hacking River at Audley, near Sydney. The middle section of the work, for many bars over a pedal-point of D, strongly suggests the ripple from oars as boats move leisurely along. At the climax, the chords become chimes, perhaps presaging wedding bells, threatened by the gathering clouds of war.
