Coojeebear and the monster is a 55 minute young people's story told by a narrator accompanied by a full symphony orchestra. The work includes seven songs. At this point in the story, Coojeebear(a koala) and Nessie (the Loch Ness Monster) have become lost in fog while travelling by sea at night. As dawn breaks and the fog clears, they find themselves by the Giants' Causeway in Ireland, and are astonished to encounter Sean, a leprechaun who makes shoes for giants. During the first part of the excerpt Sean is not visible and the music is under dialogue. He pops up just before the 'jig' begins.
