Playlist:    • Six Fish - Nigel Westlake  

Ocean Sunfish are the largest and heaviest bony fish in the world, capable of weighing up to a tonne(!) Remarkably this animal seems to never stop growing and due to it’s humungous size it moves simply by wading through the ocean currents. The sunfish’s body is flattened laterally, resembling that of a sun or moon, and its diet consists of immense amounts jellyfish that accidentally glide into its mouth. The long phrased, relaxed melodies of this piece reflects the movements and very existence of this huge, sun bathe-loving fish.
