The Piano and The Sea

Hi piano folks!

I am looking for pieces that, in some way, describe the sea and its sounds, movement and etc.

The first idea that comes to my mind is Liszt's Legend or Ravel's Mirrors, but I would like to have something more original.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Peter Sculthorpe "Sea Chant". A simple little piece but quite nice.
