From the moment this extraordinary new work takes flight, you are soaring on the wings of a new masterpiece for concert band. The Piasa is a mythical bird-like creature from the lore of the native American Illini tribe, its origins pre-dating the discovery of the Mississippi River. The grace & power of this formidable creature, as well as the bravery of those who challenged it, is expertly captured in this magnificently heroic overture. Easily one ofthe finest new band works to come along in years. (5:10)
