Description:
Originally one of the classic contest works for brass band, this evocative piece has gained life and colour in this transcription for wind band by Kevin Lamb. It depicts the vast and daring voyages of the great explorer, ending with his tragic death at the hands of natives in Hawaii. (Recorded on QPRM115D GREAT BRITISH MUSIC FOR WIND BAND, Western Band of the Royal Air Force)
