Description:
A ship lost in the fog on the ocean at night is tossed and turned by the powerful winds. All seems lost until a beacon of light shining in the dark is spotted by the desperate crew. With the sighting of a distant lighthouse in the fog, there is finally a path to safety, and the restoration of hope.
Lighthouse in the Fog is a programmatic work for string orchestra that paints this picture musically. The opening measures describe the vast dark ocean upon which the tiny sailing ship is stranded. The main melody beginning at measure 7 is a rising and falling musical idea depicting the large ocean waves.
The second melody at measure 24 portrays the gentle glowing lighthouse in the distance, providing the lost ship with a guide to safety. Measure 30 quickly returns to the choppy ocean as the waves try to prevent the ship from reaching its destination. The final measures are in the major mode indicating the hard earned but safe arrival of the sailing ship to the lighthouse shore.
