Arrows of Lightning is a work in four movements by the Luxembourg composer Marco Ptz. American Indian songs and poems - which includes a song that translates as Arrows of Lightning - served as the inspiration for this composition. In this song, the arrows were charmed by means of singing and dancing so that they would go faster - as fast as lightning. The scoring enables this piece to be performed by a band without a full contingent of players. A fantastic, wild-west adventure for your band. Dur: 10:10 (Grade 2-1/2)
