Joan of Arc

Honor, bravery, and spirit mark the character of Joan of Arc. Beginning with a solemn introduction signifying the visions that this martyr experienced, the work gives way to an exciting and rhythmic section that depicts her many battles. Active percussion, dark harmonies, and motivic development add to the sophistication of this work based on the enigmatic historical figure. It will be a fine addition to your next concert or festival performance as well as an opportunity for cross-curricular education.
