Sara Mohr-Pietsch takes us on a listening journey towards Claude Debussy's orchestral work La Mer.

On the way, we encounter seascapes from a gentle jazz trio by Bill Evans to Joseph Haydn's 'Rolling in Foaming Billows' from his oratorio The Creation. La Mer was partly inspired by Japanese artworks, and we hear another art-inspired piece by Ottorino Respighi, plus a Portrait of a Japanese Garden by Kaija Saariaho. And, reflecting the fact that Debussy worked on the score of La Mer in Eastbourne, there's a vintage tune from Albert Sandler and his Grand Hotel (Eastbourne) Orchestra.
