Description:
Inspired by T.E. Lawrences memorable book The Seven Pillars of Wisdom, this musical adaptation is a descriptive account of the authors role in the Arab revolt during World War I. The music captures the imagery and mood of the desert landscape through three musical scenes: The Hills of Hejaz at Dawn; The Attack on Akab and Audas Furious Charge, all of which are enhanced through the use of colorful percussion.
