Shackelton’s Cross was inspired by a painting created in 1957 by the English artist Edward Seago (1910–1974). The title refers to a cross which was erected to the memory of Sir Ernest Shackleton, who led a number of explorations to the Antarctic. Shackleton died in 1922 whilst on a Polar expedition, and the cross can be found on a promontory at the entrance to the bay at Grytviken Whaling Station in South Georgia. The painting is owned by HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, and was part of an exhibition at Buckingham Palace from October 2011 to April 2012.
Originally scored for oboe, trumpet and small orchestra, Daniel Hall’s sensitive arrangement follows the composer’s alternative version for solo trumpet and organ, created for Chrispian Steele-Perkins (trumpet) and David Goode (organ).

Composed on the tenth anniversary of the Piper Alpha tragedy for solo unaccompanied trumpet and dedicated to all those who died.
On Wednesday July 6th. 1988 at 10pm there was an explosion on board the Piper Alpha oil-rig in the North Sea. Two more massive explosions occurred eventually leaving one hundred and sixty seven men dead.
Ten years later while watching a documentary on the disaster I was struck by the survivor’s accounts of how despite the intense heat and noise, which emanated from the explosions, there was also a strange air of peacefulness. Being an Aberdonian and knowing many who work in and around the oil industry I decided to write a piece for solo trumpet which evoked this feeling of peacefulness.

Seven Men of Moidart Charles Edward Stuart arrived on the island of Eriskay in the Outer Hebrides on 2nd August 1745. With him were seven men, four Irish, two Scottish and one English. They became known as the Seven Men of Moidart. On 19th August 1745 Charles raised the standard at Glenfinnan to lead the Second Jacobite Rising in his fathers name.
1. William Murray, Marquess of Tullibardine, was almost sixty. He had supported the Jacobites in both the ’15 and the ’19 and was deprived of his estates at Blair Atholl. Died in the Tower of London in 1746.
2. Sir John MacDonald, a cavalry officer in the French forces and Instructor of Cavalry to the Jacobites. Kept a journal throughout the campaign which historians found invaluable. Captured at Culloden but claimed French citizenship and was eventually exchanged for English prisoners.

6. Parson George Kelly who was sent to France with news of the Jacobite victory at Prestonpans. He joined the Prince in exile in Paris and died in 1762.
7. John William O’Sullivan, an Irishman who generates much debate about his influence over the Prince. Escaped to France and married Louise Fitzgerald. Died in the early 1760s.
