Vol de Nuit (mix 1 AMB)

[Annemarie Borg]

In this track I was inspired by the book written by Antoine de Saint Exupéry:

In the early part of the 20^th century the first pioneer-pilots of the airmail service often gave their lives on long night flights over continents and oceans. They used compasses for directions and the stars, and demonstrated an incredible sense of duty.

The main theme is: ...whether doing what is necessary to meet a valuable long-term goal is more important than an individual's life.

I may add lyrics or a poem to introduce the piece...

“Clear skies, no wind....”

Golden evenings

Shadows of valleys and plains

Strips of long enamel clouds

Ripples of icy blue.....etc...

The cello part is replayed here live by my friend Patrick Tapio Johnson.
