Product Description

Forty-five years ago, on November 10, 1975 29 crew members lost their lives on the Edmund Fitzgerald sailing across Lake Superior. I took Gordon Lightfoot's beautiful song and turned it into my own piano arrangement. You will notice that the ship bell is heard throughout the song. This song is in six parts. The summon begins with the ship's bell ringing summoning everyone to gather for a story, Next is "The Voyage Begins" with a calm Lake Superior. The ship bell rings again announce heavy seas ahead and we are now into the next section called "The Storm Begins". The bell continues to ring warning the crew of heavy waves. The next section is called "The Gales of November". The intensity picks up. The bell rings with force calling for help. The next section is called "The Sinking". You can hear the waves crashing into the ship as the bell continues to call for help. At the end the ship sinks as the bell continues to ring. There is one last ring as it settles on the bottom of Lake Superior. The last section is "The Memorial." It is the stillness of the water after a storm with no sign of the Edmund Fitzgerald. The bell ring 29 times for each of the crew members. Enjoy.
