This CD features Stephen's "Suite For Slavomir" - tracks 2-7. In the liner notes, Stephen writes:
This music was inspired by a book entitled "The Long Walk" by Slavomir Rawicz (Lyon & Burford Press, 1956) which relates the story of how the author, a 26 year-old Polish cavalry lieutenant was captured by the Soviets in 1941 and accused of spying for the Germans. After sampling enough of Soviet prison hospitality he resolves to escape and with six others does so in the middle of the Siberian winter. It's an amazing story.
