This
three-movement programmatic work is based on various constellations
and their Greek mythologies. Movements include Orion (The Hunter),
Draco (The Dragon), and Pegasus (The Winged Horse).
The opening movement paints a picture of the night sky before
introducing the mighty Orion. The second movement depicts the fiery
dragon and its fierce triple row of teeth. (An optional lion's roar
enhances the movement.) The final movement takes listeners on a
flight with Pegasus, beginning with a fast gallop on the ground
before the magnificent animal takes flight. The movements can be
performed separately or as a whole. Absolutely stunning!
