You will hear 16 musical variations based around a single theme composed for this walk. A musical accompaniment to your daily walk. All I suggest is that you follow the route and when you hear music, perhaps stop and let yourself stare a while at anything your eyes happen to rest upon. When the music finishes continue walking along the route until the next musical interlude and so on to the end. Please get in touch and let me know how it goes. The pieces are mostly 40 secs long, apart from the 3 main piano pieces that are between 1m30secs and 3m30secs. You can either wear some headphones if walking alone, or if with others maybe bring a portable speaker paired to your phone, and listen all together, letting the music fill the space as you stop to share the break. Even if walking alone, consider using a small portable speaker. The idea is that the music is heard alongside the natural environmental sounds rather than blocking it out. I hope you finish your walk feeling refreshed, calm and peaceful. XXX criggun1@yahoo.co.uk

This tour was produced by the John Daniel Centre and Penlee House Gallery & Museum as part of a partnership project in 2019. It was created to explore Penzance’s history through the photography collection at Penlee House. The ten images were selected and researched by a group from the John Daniel Centre; you can visit the locations where these photographs were taken to compare the photographs to the views today. This tour was created for Penzance Selects 2019, a community-curated exhibition held at Penlee House Gallery & Museum from 23 November 2019 to 4 January 2020.

Start at the entrance to Burthallan Lane, and walk along Burthallan Lane to the coastal path, down and around to Clodgy Point, along to Porthmeor Beach and back up Porthmeor hill. You will hear 16 musical variations based around a single theme composed for this walk, each one triggered as you move along the route. A musical accompaniment to your daily walk. All I suggest is that you follow the route and when you hear music, perhaps stop and let yourself stare a while at anything your eyes happen to rest upon. Then continue walking along the route until the next musical interlude and so on to the end. Please get in touch and let me know how it goes. The pieces are mostly 40 secs long, apart from the longer piano pieces that are between 1m30secs and 3m30secs. If you have a little speaker that connects to your phone, that’s ideal- either bluetooth or wired connection. You can then listen to the music out loud and amongst the natural environmental sounds, or if you prefer use a pair of headphones. Once paired and with boots laced up and coat on, go on the walk. The app needs to be open, but the phone screen can be at sleep and in your pocket- Unless you want the use the phone to follow the route. I hope you enjoy and finish your walk feeling refreshed, calm and peaceful. XXX criggun1@yahoo.co.uk
