£47.50Cowboy Dust - Gerald Oswald
In this work, the composer depicts an adventurous day in the life of a cowboy. As he rides his horse across the plains, clouds of 'cowboy dust' whirl up behind him. He rides over the prairie, faces dangerous snakes, gallops across dusty fields and stumbles upon an ambush of bandits. In the gunfight that follows, he is the victor, and he rides along the prairie a silent hero, on his way to another adventure.

DA VINCI opens with a grand, massive chord over five octaves throughout the orchestra. This chord, the Da Vinci Chord, is the connective tissue between the various sections, and it leads to a radiant C major chord, as an ode to one of the greatest geniuses of all time.
