The name says all. It's a take of a quill pen writing on an hard paper. I begun to write slowly and then increasing the speed.

La nome dice tutto. E' il campionamento di una penna d'oca che scrive su cartoncino. Ho iniziato a scrivere lentamente per poi aumentare progressivamente la velocità.

Thanks. Really good for my educational short film where Herodotus writes the history.

Thanks. Used in my instrumental track "A Light in the Darkness".

https://soundcloud.com/mrbouzouki/a-light-in-the-darkness

An Irish-tinged tune about the Lindisfarne Gospels to reflect the Irish foundations of the community despite the later Romanisation of the Celtic church.

The track title comes from me thinking about it being a beacon of civilisation, a rallying point, during the Early Middle Ages whist a far chunk of the UK was under Viking rule and Christianity had again been pushed to the margins of the UK.

Thanks to Karen O'Mahony (MonnoDB) for her (harp playing) advice - check out her stuff here:- @monnodb

This track is now part of "The Pilgrims Way Project" exploring the history and natural world of Lindisfarne
---------------------------
Instrumentation
A Light in the Darkness instrumental features strings, high C whistle, harp, violin, Uilleann pipes, bodhrán (Irish frame drum) and a choir backing.

The sound of 'Eadfrith' doing his writing is a sound FX that is classed as Public Domain and used to add colour to the track, It can be found on www.freesound.org
