Programme Note
The Sirens were sea-nymphs who had the power of charming by their song all who heard them, so that unhappy mariners were irresistibly impelled to cast themselves into the sea to their destruction.
Syrensong is dedicated with much affection to Bill Mann, and is approximately 14 minutes in duration.
