Anasazi for Orchestra Mvt. 2: The Night of the Yellow Moon

Description

This evocative setting for full orchestra is the second of four movements representing the life of early Native Americans of the Southwest United States. The lyric melodies and flowing lines portray the slow and graceful harvest dance, reflecting the reverence the tribe had for the sacred land they lived on. The quiet and peaceful atmosphere creates a spectral vision of a moonlit landscape long ago. 2+Picc.2.2.2: 4.3.3.1: Timp.Perc(7): Str(9.8.7.6.5)
