This work, a cello concerto in all but name, was inspired by an old black and white photograph taken on Sheerness beach with a very young Philip Henderson huddling up to Alice, his mother, at the waters edge. She had just been made a widow following the tragic death of Philip's father, and she had taken her son and daughter for a trip to the seaside, despite their great loss.
There are four movements: Sunrise; Morning Delight; Dancing in the Midday Sun; Castles of Sand.
