The Road to Geraldine


A mystical-sounding Slip-Slide in F Lydian, composed in the car on a road trip towards the town of Geraldine, in New Zealand’s South Island.

Geraldine is a picturesque town, famous in NZ for it’s lovely cheese shop and for Barker’s Food store, who make relishes that are sold in supermarkets across the country. I dedicate this tune to my Aunt in Scotland who is, appropriately enough, called Geraldine!

Recording note: At the end of the piece you’ll hear the sound of an airplane, this is a real sound of a low flying plane that passed over exactly at the time heard in the recording. I kept it there as I like the sound of it!
