Dave bainbridge encore from the eye of the eagle


The Eye Of The Eagle is an album by Dave Bainbridge and Dave Fitzgerald. Released in 1998.

Contents

Renowned flute and saxophone player Dave Fitzgerald was a founding member of Iona, but left to pursue classical music studies. After completing his master's degree in music he began recording collaborative projects with fellow musicians, revealing his love of the liturgical tradition. Teaming up with fellow ex-Iona member Dave Bainbridge (guitar, keyboard), and using wind and reed instruments as voices, together they provide a meditative backdrop for the reading of poetry by Anglican Canon Dave Adam. The theme of Adam's work, rooted in Celtic spirituality, is awareness of God's presence in the mundane affairs of everyday life.
