Work Overview
The Full-Rigged Ship is a three-part jig (traditional) from the Shetland Islands with a contemporary introduction. The music is intended to convey the rolling motion of a sea-going vessel. The Shetland Islands, remote and isolated, served as an important port of call between Scotland and Scandinavia, guaranteeing frequent sightings of these majestic craft.
