V5.5

[Intro] [Continuous, tender, bittersweet violin ensemble] [Gentle, graceful string bed - matching the lagoon theme tone] [Character Monologue: Slow Spoken Word Narrator] [Voice: Soft, particularly sensitive, kind and reassuring] While we are mourning the loss of those we love... others are rejoicing to see them, beyond the veil. [Music: Continuous, weeping violin arrangement flows seamlessly] [Character Monologue] In a beautiful blue lagoon on a clear day, a fine sailing-ship spreads its brilliant white canvas in a fresh morning breeze and sails out to the open sea. [Music: Crying violin solo enters - evoking deep sadness and longing] We watch her glide away magnificently through the deep blue and gradually see her grow smaller and smaller as she nears the horizon. [Music: Crying violin solo enters - evoking deep sadness and longing] Finally... where the sea and sky meet... [Slow Cadence] she... slips... silently... from... sight. And someone near me says... [Music: Melancholic, weeping violin chord - deeply emotional] "There, she is GONE." [Music Transition: A single, sustained crying violin solo note - continuous and unbroken] [Character Monologue] [Voice: Softer, especially sensitive, tender, kind and reassuring] [Voice rising on the interrogative] Gone WHERE? Gone from sight; That is all. [Music: Continuous smooth, gentle string pads - no chromatic build-up] She is still as large in mast and hull and sail... still just as able to bear her load. And we can be sure that... just as we say... [Voice: Expressing a little more sadness][violin continues] "There... she is gone..." another... on a distant shore... says [Music Build: Instant triumphant orchestral shift, proud french horns entering] "Look! ...There she comes!" [Crescendo Peak] [Bright, majestic orchestral return] [End]
