This is the house where my grandfather (Harold McGonigal) was born, right by the sea in Westport. The sea here is always com, sheltered by hundreds of islands in Clew Bay. I am looking at the same sea as my grandfather, where he played as a child. He grew up with the power of the sea at his doorstep, connecting us across time and space. That is the inspiration for the Sea Symphony. I wonder if he would approve?
