Description:
According to ancient Chinese mythology, the universe was divided into four quadrants called the Four Celestial Palaces, each represented by a guardian animal: Dragon, Phoenix, Tiger and Tortoise. This multi-sectioned work takes the listener on a journey to ancient China with contrasting moods and rhythmic interest. It has been written for piccolo trumpet and 5 trumpets with a player playing flugel horn in one section.
