March II for a wind band
Here's another march about to get ready. Österstjernan (Stella Oriens) is a beautiful yacht, which you can find on this page: http://www.skutforening.org/sivut/laivat.html
It's a new built yacht, a replica of an 18th century vessel that shipped wares between Stockholm and Loviisa. My composition tries to catch the glory of the old yachts, but there's a passage telling about modern times, when you don't get into troubles when the wind stops.

And here's one rather good performance of the march.
It's a youth orchestra in Spain performing it last summer on a music camp.
