Mind you, dozens of other people I know who are indifferent at best to leylines and dowsing also compose their own music... :/

Oh I agree but of course there is music and music. The type of music I associate with sacred or mystical places is normally the serene peaceful type that may possibly reflect the type of person the composer is. But then again it may not!


That's why I posted the Birtwhistle and O'Carolan to show that the musical response to monuments need not be celtic twilight or as Lutyens would have it "cow pat " . Musical responses are all about the composer and their view , which in a folk /pop sense might fail to note (pun intended) details like the the dwarf female buried at Avebury or the possible dedicatory youth at your own eponymous site S.
