Program Notes
Fred Stride’s Seaquam references West Coast First Nations life in a general way. It does not strive to tell any particular story but evokes scenes and moods of the primeval British Columbia coast with wonderful use of percussion and Stride’s masterful and original orchestrations and voicings.
