From the Artist
The path of this eclipse took it first over Hawaii, then Mexico, Central America, Columbia, and Brazil. Rusty Crutcher was present in Las Cruces, Baja, Mexico for this total solar eclipse of July 11, 1991.
Humankind has traditionally accounted for eclipses of the Sun in its folklore. Historically, the Sun's total eclipse has been perceived as an ill omen by prophets, soldiers in battle, philosophers, as well as common folk. Their fear and bewilderment is a primal response which parallels the instinctive reactions of animals. During a total eclipse, it is not uncommon for birds to fall from the sky, for flowers to close, and for insects to become silent until the moment of totality, at which point they vocalize as if it were night. Ocean Eclipse is part of Crutcher's Sacred Sites of Music.
