Fingal's Cave.
Mendelssohn's overture "Fingal's Cave"; a cave on the island of Staffa in the Hebrides.
The name "Hebrides Overture" refers to the Scottish archipelago known as the Hebrides, which inspired composer Felix Mendelssohn to create the piece. The overture, originally titled "Fingal's Cave," reflects Mendelssohn's impressions of the dramatic landscapes and seascapes he encountered during his visit to the islands in 1829. The music evokes the natural beauty and atmospheric qualities of the Hebrides, capturing the essence of the region's rugged coastline and mystical allure.

fingals cave is a cave formed by the same geological processes as those at the giants causeway on the other side of the Irish sea. after a volcano erupted 60 million years ago, hexagonal basalt columns formed as the cave cooled. the cave which has been formed by the sea eroding it away is easy to access. it was discovered in 1772 by sir Joseph banks and a visit to the cave by the composer Felix Mendelssohn inspired him to write his 'Hebrides overture''. popularly known as ''fingal's cave''.+++Not quite: the columns formed as the rock cooled. The cave did not exist until long after the island formed, and was then, as you say, cut by erosion. The volcanism was associated with the inception of the Atlantic Ocean.
