Escales

n. a brief stay in the course of a journey. Types: concert, représentation. a stop made by a touring musical or theatrical group to give a performance. Type of: arrêt, séjour. continuing or remaining in a place or state.

A French composer, Jacques Ibert, took a musical trip a century ago. 4 ports of call. If you close your eyes you can travel along.

I've known this work for 60+ years and when I listen I see the street scenes, the waterfronts, the people and can smell the air and feel the sun.
