Avebury Circles (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Brand, Michael

The Avebury Circles in Wiltshire (England) are even more spectacular than Stonehenge. They are thought to date from the same time. Who knows what they symbolized or what rituals were performed there? Brand, Michael's piece imagines a misty dawn as the sun rises over the shaped stones, followed by a robed ceremony, a sacrifice and finally a dance.
