Description:
Beautifully crafted, this short work for 4 hands conjures up precisely the imagery the title suggests. Calm, lilting, melodic, but requiring technical skill, it would be a welcome addition to the piano duet repertoire. Despite its apparent tonality, the harmony offers the odd pleasant surprise as one would expect of Skempton's imitable style. - Plain Sailing was written in 1993 and given its first public performance by the Walker-White Piano Duo on 5 February 2001 at Cheltenham Town Hall.
