Scarista (Single)

by Ben Bryden

about

Scarista is a place that holds personal significance for saxophonist Ben Bryden, best described by poet Hugh MacMillan:

The parallels, the music of the spheres, the synchronicity, the long lives to share.

The city in orbit around them
the pair perfectly centred,

discovering more, each moment
at the edge of an ocean.

Scotland the aching, Scotland

the indelible, but America

the golden, land brimmed with promise now flooded by romance.

It is the way of the world-

goodbyes and hellos-

and in each twist and turn

we freeze our love in amber

and give gifts, we celebrate and remember
that the world is always for the young.
