about

Strategic Retreat
This album is unlike anything that I have written before and breaks rules of strategy and genre.
It was written as my mother was sick and eventually surccumb and passed on. This happened as Bermuda was having a surge of Covid cases, and Canada, where my Mom was livings on lock down. This led to the challenge of getting my Dad to Canada before my Mom died and dealing with the red tape. Once we figured out the process it took two applications to get it correct only to find that there were still documents missing when my Dad went to the airport, which had to be rectified, delaying his flight by a week.
All this happened while I was under quarantine for possible contact with a student who had contracted the virus.
My Dad was able to get to see my Mom just before she died.
Also during this time a friend and fan “Binks” died suddenly.
I work as a music teacher and did not take any time off during this time. Which included teaching online while we where in quarantine and lockdown. Taking time off would mean preparing lessons plans which would have been just as much work.
My wife was a great support during this time and did her best to help, but music has always been my way to deal with things and escape.
This, rather large, album was my way of dealing with a difficult time. While the world around me falls into chaos I can retreat into my own world of absurdism and music and emerge ready to deal with the next thing.

To My Mom. Yvette V. A. Swan
