Grade 3
Concert Band

Performance: Banda Comunale "G. Verdi" di Sinnai (Cagliari)
Conductor: Lorenzo Pusceddu
In this piece the composer was inspired by Cuili Piras archaeological site in Sardinia, an ancient megalithic site built up of 53 granite menhirs, which not only created a site of worship but also a precision astronomic calendar. The atmospheres evocated by the music take us back to the prehistoric age, raising the fascinating question about who might have been capable of creating a construction of such astonishing proportions and characteristics.
