Saving a Single Starfish by Catherine Wilson has a meandering and thoughtful quality.
The ostinato left hand evokes the ebb and flow of the tide while the melodic motifs in the right hand help to communicate the story of finding a starfish washed up on the beach and returning them to the sea. The hints of minimalistic patterns help to reflect the repetition of the movement of the tide.
