Beyond the Pillars of Hercules
As we sat in the stern, Zyndal whispered his excitement to Basio. Our voyage to the fabled land of Atlantis by way of the Pillars of Hercules had begun! The vessel moved away from the pier and within moments we were sailing! I remember the sounds of the seagulls overhead, the creaking of the mast and the swish of the oars in the water. It was a dreamlike setting with the sun beginning to set in a blaze of glory in the west with the open sea in front of us. The coastline sped past us and suddenly we were between the Pillars, the Straits of Gibralter as we know it.
The music is divided into three sections: the first, portraying the beginning of the adventure out onto the open sea, the second part, the ship moving through the Pillars and our view of the endless sky at night with it's millions of stars, and then, the third part, portraying the sun rising in the east over the ocean spilling it's rays of light onto the shining towers of Atlantis.
May this short sketch recreate in your mind the excitement and visual splendor of that voyage!

Origins of the Music
I have received a number of requests concerning the stories behind the creation of the music. Fair enough....they will not be in the longer story form, but they will give you the inspiration for the different tracks. You'll find them here in the "Journal" section. Please let me know your thoughts as you read them.....Davutus
