Eric Coates’ By the Sleepy Lagoon (1930) was inspired by the view on a warm, still summer evening looking across a lagoon-like pebble beach leading steeply down to a deep blue sea at Selsey on England’s south coast. Originally scored for orchestra, it became the theme tune for the British radio programme ‘Desert Island Discs’ since its inception in 1942 and was one of the many successful pieces by Eric Coates (1886-1957) which cheered the British people during the second world war and afterwards.
