Cyprus is a sanctuary for me, and my wife. We spent our honeymoon there in 1985 and fell in love with this beautiful island. We love the rugged beauty, rich culture, cuisine and authentic traditions of its people. Like so many, we find that the island magnetically lures you back and we return regularly to experience our haven and to see our friends. One such friend recently sent me a poem written by his wife Helen, a spiritual healer, asking me to write the music. Her poem is a powerful and poignant love affair with her beloved Cyprus against a backdrop of an island compromised by the ongoing occupation in the North. Helen’s immense passion moved me and her words effortlessly lifted from the page and inspired me to write “Cyprus”.
