These three pieces of musical majesty by Vangelis generate an awareness of the ominous force, yet serene tranquility of the sea. The vastness of the ocean surges against the coastline and reminds us that beneath the sparkling allure of the waves lies a terrible strength, ready to rise up with overwhelming power.

My photos were intertwined to accompany the themes from The Bounty and extend a visual link to the listener, so that they might immerse themselves into these sweeping measures.

  • Thanks for uploading this. Really is a great piece.

  • @bamaman84 Glad to do it! I'm very grateful for the comment!

  • Saw a replica of "The Bounty" - Sydney Harbour in 2005. Also Visited Magnetic Island (off Cairns in Northern Queensland) - where Cook landed

  • @MovieMad007 Very cool, did you go on board? What was the island like? Thanks for the comment!

  • @rovingrepairbot will try and put my pic of myself on the island as my profile pic will send you an email to see if you have seen it..within next couple of days. magnetic Island is not as deserted now as you may think it would be! You can buy holiday chalets on it. The day i was there (am British by the way) the weather was just like a cloudy day here in the UK - but the temperature was about 20 degrees warmer!!! But its very emotional to be there! Can see why this music was written!!!

  • @MovieMad007 Thank you so much! Sounds very warm and fascinating! I bet it was emotional! Thanks for sharing insight on it!

see all

  • @rovingrepairbot didn't go on the bounty though! :(

  • @JMarshallBeckham0952 I know how you feel.

  • This music by Vangelis always grabs my soul, and it makes me wonder if perhaps I wasn't on that ship with Captain Bligh in an other past life.  I do have some British blood in me...
